I almost bought a 788 in 243 20 years ago... but i was dumb poor kid and didnt have enough money! I still wish it had worked out.

finally at the range, Nosler BT 140 grain, 200 yards, .619, CtoC pretty good for a 18 inch barrel

Looks very nicely done and is a shooter. I dig it!

Keep the trigger clean - those like to go boom with safety release.
