Remington 788 tactical stock?

[swokdogger]

Can anyone tell me if there is a stock mfg that inlets for a 788 or if there are any after market stocks for this action? I'm not familiar with it really and have a friend looking for something. Thanks for any input.

Don't know the budget. McMillan can do it.

I'm sure there is no budget but he is a major tight wad! I was pretty sure McM could. Has anyone restocked one?

Not tactical, but Boyds has a thumbhole laminated for $80+shipping. Nothing wrong with sturdy laminate. I have a laminate varmint stock on my 700 AAC-SD. You can always paint it camo if you want.

Don't they have the same footprint as a 700?

No. The only way to tactically stock a 788 is to build a stock for it. It just really sucks someone is doing that to a 788.
Lot of BR people use them for actions because of the rear bolt lugs and fastest lock time of a production rifle ever.

I agree. They are known to be tack drivers.

+1 on the tack driver. A bitch to upgrade. Hard to get your money back if you decide to sell it.
