BTW: I have one and while finding .350 brass can be challenging at times I really love the 673 and it's surprisingly accurate too for a handy thumper. Here's a group I shot at 100 yards with some vintage factory 200 grain core-lokts (rifle is topped with a 1.75-6x Leupold):

Oh, while I’m thinking of it you may want to replace the “J-lock” firing pin assembly that comes on the 673 with a non-“J-lock” one. I got mine from Pacific Tool and Gauge, quality unit (Model 7 with flat side shroud) and really helps with lock-time and trigger sensation not having the firing pin spring binding inside the bolt.

Post by: ANDERWAGON on December 20, 2011, 06:14:16 PM: Bear Hunter, have you shot the 673? I have a buddy that's really into the 350 Rem. He has a couple in the model 600 and one 673. I’m not real sensitive to recoil but the factory stock on the 673 has short drop in the comb and kick rather hard. The 600’s with a shorter barrel are way less abusive. :twocents:

Are you looking for new or used?

New but would take one in good shape. I don't mind the recoil. I have 6 boxes and need to buy one to go with the ammo. LOL
