Description:
RARE AND CLASSIC REMINGTON MODEL 600 MAGNUM IN 6.5 REMINGTON MAGNUM CALIBER, COMPLETE WITH BAUSCH & LOMB BALVAR 5 SCOPE, #74XXX. This was a truly unconventional and radical rifle produced only from 1964-1968. The Model 600 was offered in several calibers, but the "Magnum" version was only offered in 6.5 Rem. Mag. and .350 Rem. Mag.- both of which have an almost cult-like following today. The rifle itself was a total departure from anything else being offered by anyone. It sported a short, 18 1/2" barrel WITH OPEN SIGHTS AND A FULL VENTILATED RIB (!) along with a LAMINATED STOCK. It came standard with a retro dog-leg bolt handle (like on the earlier World War I P-17 Enfield military rifles and the later Remington Model 30 sporters). It also came standard with a recoil pad and slight Monte Carlo stock. Remember, this was a time when many cars sported fins and Colt's superb Python and Diamondback revolvers had vent rib barrels. Known for their accuracy, but not accepted by a number of gun writers of the time, it soon ceased production with few produced in the Magnum Model. Jeff Cooper, gun guru and gun writer praised the rifle and used it as a model for his "Scout Rifle" ideas. This one is fitted with a matching classic Bausch & Lomb Balvar 5 scope. This is a very high quality 2.5X-5X variable scope in equally classic adjustable mounts (you'll see these mounts paired with this scope if you Google B&L Balvar scopes etc.). The base of the mount is marked "Kuharsky Bros., Erie, PA." the scope has fine optics and is fitted with a cross hair reticle. Overall excellent condition retaining about all the blue. There are a few light handling/hunting marks in the stock that would probably be fairly easy to remove. Exc. inside and very light and crisp trigger pull. Great rifle with a truly classic/matching scope! This one was just a little too ahead of its time!
