A Remington Model 788 bolt-action rifle, likely manufactured in 1968 (based on the serial number 6118605), that has been custom-chambered or rechambered for the .257 Ackley Improved cartridge.
Key Rifle Details
Model: Remington 788, a bolt-action rifle produced between 1967 and 1983, known for its extreme accuracy due to its nine rear locking lugs and a stiff, thick-walled receiver.
Serial Number Analysis: Serial number 6118605 falls within the block (6200000 to 6899999) commonly associated with the 1968 production year for the Model 788.
Action Design: The 788 is famous for its rear-lugged bolt, which allows for a short 60-degree bolt lift—providing better clearance for mounted scopes compared to standard 90-degree lifts.
This is a left handed, composite rifle. Serial number 6118605. These Firearms are used and show various signs of wear. They are sold "AS IS" with no warranty from the Wyoming Wild Sheep Foundation and may not be returned. Buyers will be charged a USD $100 premium for the packing, shipping and transers of the FFl for each firearm and will be notified of the FFL dealer to whom they may send their FFL information to start the process.
