I am looking for a reasonable priced .223,as I was just given two five gallon pails of ammo for one.
I have a lead on a remington 788,and after doing some research( very little) I have found both good and bad about this gun.Some find it very acurate for a entry level gun,and some have pointed out some issues with a weak bolt that at times will break of,and then some say that the parts for this gun have just about dried up.
I don't want to spend alot of money,for one of these new plastic type guns of todays market,but would rather have an older well made gun with a wood stock and fore end.
I want this for groundhog hunting.
Can anyone give me some good advice,and point me in the right direction.
