Remington 673
Has Remington dropped the Model 673? I was looking at one of their catalogs the other day and there was no Model 673.

Does anyone have anything to say about the 673, in any caliber? 0 -
Jon0322,
The M673 was released in the .308 Win. so it's not a stretch for us to believe that they also did some in the .243 Win.
This is not definitive proof by any means but it is another reference to what may be the answer:
"Remington 673 .243 Win caliber rifle. Guide rifle in rare non-catalog .243 caliber. Has laminated stock and 22" Vent rib barrel. In excellent condition."
This website is notorious for the overuse of the terms 'rare' and 'limited production' in an attempt to justify inflated prices. However, in this situation, it might be more correct. I cannot corroborate their statement.

Big Green will run special large quantity orders for distributors, and there might be one of those deals with your 243...
At any rate, you do have something that not everyone has, but as to collectability...it is supply and demand, the demand part being prominant.

I bought a Remington 673 in 243 Win. caliber from Whitaker Firearms a few years ago. It is not a catalog item. 0 -
Thanks guys. I am not really worried about the value, shooting and using it just like the rest of my rifles. Just curious as to if anyone had any more info. on them. Great shooter too!

From what I know, Remington made a run of 500 673's in 243. Back in 2004, I ran across one here on Gunbroker, and the guy was from New York. Said he had bought 20 of them. He had it priced at about $625 if I remember right. Anyway, if I would've known then what I know now, I would've bought one. if you see one now, it will open up at $1000+, and go from there. Hind Sight is always so 20/20. 0
