I wouldn't give you $100 for one, but then I have always hated the 788. They generally shoot great, but they are fugly, clunky, have all the style of a mud fence and aren't quite as pretty.
Of course, my dislike is caused by the fact that Remington replaced the Model 600 series, which I dearly loved, with the 788. I understand why they canceled the 600, but never thought the 788 was a worthy replacement.
My one hands on experience was a friend's .308 he brought to me because he couldn't sight it in. With all the adjustment cranked on the scope, it was still hitting 2 feet right at 100yds. Barrel, seemed straight, stock wasn't touching the barrel, couldn't find any reason, but that's what it did. Wound up shimming the scope mount to get it on target. It grouped well, but the stock didn't fit me well, and so recoil seemed excessive.
If you like them, fine. Don't ever lose or break the magazine though...
