Remington made some 673s and 700s in 6.5 RM, as did Ruger in the 77 and Mossberg in the 800, none of them lasted very long.

I've always wondered why the 350 RM didn't sell like hotcakes in the 600. A small package chambered for a powerful cartridge seems like it would have been a big seller in AK and in Canada where there are dangerous bears. The two or three 600s in 350 RM that have passed through my hands all went to buyers in AK.
