The Weaver #76 Top-Mount Scope Base (Weaver part no. 48076) is machined specifically for the Remington 788, giving this budget-friendly bolt rifle a factory-tight platform for a riflescope. Weaver cuts the base from aluminum and finishes it in a black gloss that matches the 788’s factory blued receiver. Because it’s machined to the exact screw pattern of this rifle, it bolts straight to the factory holes with no drilling or gunsmithing needed. This is the correct base to start with if you’re mounting glass on a Remington 788 for hunting or the range.
