Saw all those 788s listed and had to smile. About 15-20 years ago I wanted a light, walking coyote rifle and had my heart set on a Remmy 7 in .243 with that sexy Schnabel stock. I quickly discovered that folks buy Remington 7s, but never sell them. I ran across a guy somewhere out West who was selling something called a Remington 788 "carbine" with an 18 1/2" barrel in .243 caliber. It wasn't a Model 7, but it looked light and handy, so I bought it. Only later, after I'd researched the 788, did I realize what a little gem I'd bought.
Don't know if you're meeting up with Greyfox around White River, but I've made numerous trips with him. Enjoy!
