Information on the Remington Mohawk 600 Rifle

Remington has been making firearms since 1816, and one of their more notable models was the Mohawk 600. Remington made about 100,000 of the unique-looking bolt-action Mohawk 600 rifles from 1972 through 1979.

Features
- The Remington Mohawk 600's most distinctive feature was its bolt handle. The bolt handle bent forward and then down in a "dog leg" shape, which placed the bolt handle in an easy-to-access location. The short, 18 1/2 inch barrel of the Mohawk 600 was also relatively uncommon.
Calibers
- Remington offered the Mohawk 600 rifle in four calibers: .222 Remington, .243 Winchester, 6mm Remington and .308 Winchester. These four cartridges could be used to hunt a wide variety of targets, from varmints to deer to other big game.
Value
- The Remington Mohawk 600 is a desirable rifle, because of its unique appearance and hunting usefulness. Rifles in excellent condition are commanding prices in the $1,000 range as of August, 2010.
