Im suprised the Ruger Hawkeye in 350RM never caught on. One sold on GB a few weeks back for over $1000.

I have a Feb 1969 built 700BDL in 350 Rem Mag with 24"bbl. I have no problems with feeding and 225gn bullets achieve 2700fps with a healthy dose of IMR4895,H4895,IMR4320 or W748 I changed the old Fluer-de-lis chequered stock to a more appealing mid 70's stock. Very nice!

CDNN had the stainless/synthetic Hawkeyes in 350RM and 280 Rem on close out a couple of months ago for alot less than that.

I've had two .350's, a Remington 700 Classic and a Ruger 77 Mark II. The 700 fed rounds easily, the 77 took half of day of work to get it to feed reliably, though half as smoothly as the 700. (There are reasons for this, aside from individual rifles, but we don't need to go into them here.)
Ramshot TAC works great in the .350 with any bullet over 200 grains, with higher velocities than about any other powder, and equal accuracy. The 200's won't shoot any flatter than 225's, despite higher muzzle velocity, even at 250-300 yards, but do kick less.

Correction on the CDNN closeout on Hawkeyes, the calibers were 338Fed, 358Win, and 280 Rem for $529. No 350RM mentioned in the advertisement.

I'm confused RJM - the 600 was discontinued in 1968, was it not? That receiver looks stainless... window dressing?

That's an interesting piece! Someone went to a lot of trouble to create the rib. If you take it out of the stock please let us know whom the manufacturer is. Looks like it was Cerakoted. Here's a couple for you guys that like pictures. Top 35 Remington, Bottom 350 Remington Mag

If Scott, the auction company owner, is correct and that is a 21" barrel then someone put a LOT of money into that gun. One reason I think it sold for as low as it did is the muzzle break. I'll bet there would have been more bidders if was it wasn't there... I am just wondering if the stock is plastic, Kevlar, fiberglass... Wonder if it will have any markings inside... Bob

Perhaps it's a "Remington 673 Guide" barrel fitted to a 600 action? That would make more sense than a custom 21" barrel and rib. The stock looks to be an HS Precision and I betcha the metal was Cerakoted.

I'd check to see how loud the safety is and go from there.

The finish could be French Gray which is a form of nickel plating. It's supposed to be a pretty tough finish. Check with E.A. Brown.

..just got an email that the gun was shipped at 1600 CST....
I once saw a custom 600/.308 from Brown that had a Brown lightweight fiberglass stock, the rib removed, holes plugged and finished flush and was possibly done in that French Gray finish.
It just didn't balance/come up right for me is the reason I passed it. It sat at that dealers for over a year before someone bought it...
..a 673 barrel...I never thought of that.... Well I should know Saturday when I hopefully pick up the gun...

I just pulled pics for 600s and the 673...guess what...neither of the end of the barrel rib profiles match the custom gun's rib..
Am beginning to believe that if this is a 21" barrel then the barrel and rib may be custom or the barrel is a cut down and ported 673 barrel with a custom rib.....

I can get an older Rem BDL for about $450 so chambered. Factory SA rifle.
How's feeding? How fast will they run 225's, 250's? Not as fast as a 358-WSM will...

The stock looks to be an HS Precision and I betcha the metal was Cerakoted. Just looked at the HS Precision stocks for the Remington 600/660....I think you may be right. The pistol grip contour is the same as is the forend.... I had forgotten about them...thanks for the tip. https://www.hsprecision.com/shop2/pss020.html Bob
