Remington 673 guide gun

[Muffin Man]

Hello every one
I hope iam at the right spot. I have a Remington 673 guide gun in .308 cal with bushnell 4200 firefly scope. My buddy has a Browning X Bolt in a 7mm rem mag with Nikon BDC scope. Question is he wants my gun because it has open sights also , and what he prefers. And the Browning fits like it was built for me. Guns are both close in value and have shot about 2 boxes of bullets each. I can't decide if its worth trading or not. Since my 673 is deer to me lol and rare. But the Xbolt is so comfortable. Is it worth having the xbolt because of fit or keep my 673 guide gun because of its rareness and beauty? I don't know anything about the xbolt if there good or not just that it fits me so nice.if I had the cash I would buy the xbolt but that's not the case.
Thanks
Any opinions would be greatly appreciated

You will regret trading eventually even if the xbolt is better for you

keep it unless you really need a detach mag ...

other than that i like the sights, the laminated stock and the caliber offered only one default never offered in keft hand ...

As much as I'm not a fan of Remingtons I'd keep your gun, iron sights are rare these days and an extraordinary tool. I shoot literally all my big game over iron sights.

Keep it!

Keep it. X-bolts are current production and you can get one anytime. The 673 are hard to come by...

Very few guns I ever kicked my ass about selling off but a 673 is one of them. I would keep it also.

Keep it and buy an X-bolt.

Keep it and buy an X-bolt.

Yes ........... A short bbl 308 and a longer 7Mag would cover a lot of hunting.
