Picatinny rail for Remington 600 / Mohawk

The Remington 600 and Mohawk are compact, older Remington models with their own geometry. They should not be selected as a Remington 700 Short Action, even though they are also short Remington rifles.

The most important thing is to choose a rail that is specified for Remington 600, Mohawk or Remington 600/Mohawk, and then check the dimensions of the specific rifle.

What to check before purchase

Before choosing a Picatinny rail for Remington 600 / Mohawk, you should check:

  • If the rifle is a Remington 600, Remington Mohawk or a variant of the same product fit
  • If the product page specifies Remington 600 / Mohawk
  • That you do not choose Remington 700 Short Action as a substitute
  • If the A/B/C measurements match the rail you want to order
  • If the rifle has been used, modified or previously had its threads or mounting surface altered
  • Which MOA variants are available for the specific rail

If you are unsure about the measurements, you can use the guide for A/B/C measurements.

Typical errors and pitfalls

The most common mistake is confusing the model with the Remington 700 Short Action. The Remington 600/Mohawk must be selected according to its own product page and its own measurements.

Another mistake is overlooking the fact that many of these rifles are older. Threads, holes or mounting surfaces may have been altered or worn, so measurements should be checked extra carefully.

Finally, screws should never be forced. If a screw binds early, installation should be stopped and checked.

Material, MOA and use

Choose MOA and material according to the specific Remington 600/Mohawk rail and the rifle's use. Read more about MOA cant in the knowledge center.

Assembly and inspection

The rail must lie flat, and the screws must not be forced. Always follow the instructions for the specific rail: HG specifies oil on contact surfaces/screws and 3.5 Nm; Nieload specifies oil on contact surfaces, threadlocker on screws, 2.8 Nm and removal of adhesive residue. See the guide to installing a Picatinny rail for the basic steps.
