The Model 673 was a bolt action rifle introduced by Remington in 2003 and is still in production as of September 2007. [1] It is an updated version of the Remington Model 600. The company hails the weapon as the "ultimate guides' rifle", with features ranging from its laminated gun stock, ventilated rib, sturdy iron sights, and reliability. Its action is based on that of the Model Seven, which is of the push feed variety and is Remington's proprietary short action.
History=In the mid-60抯 Remington?introduced the Remington Model 600?Magnum, a rifle destined to become legendary with many big game guides. Decades later we introduce a modern version of the classic Model 600 ?the new Model 673 Guide Rifle.
Based on the Model Seven?action, this swift-handling rifle features a 22" magnum contour barrel with distinct machined steel ventilated rib and iron sights. It is the definition of fast target acquisition. But to consider the 673 as merely a performance oriented rifle is to sell it short. Bedecked in a two-tone wide striped, laminated, weather resistant stock with deep cut checkering and swivel studs.
