Default Remington 673 is becoming cheaper!

I noticed last month at the gun store that it seems the Remington Model 673 has been dropping alot in price. I don't see the reason for this, the guns are made in the U.S.A. (Illion, Kentucky), they shoot very accurate, and they're beautiful.
The 673 isn't a catalog item, and for some reason, it's not featured on the Remington webiste, although it says it's still in production. It's weird, does anyone have any thoughts? Or answers? Do any of you own one of these guns?

From what I heard the 673 has been discontinued. You might have to contact Remington for verification...

Yeah, they weren't popular and they have been discontinued from everything I've heard about them. Dealers are trying to push them out of inventory probably.

I bought one in 350 Magnum for Bear hunting. I like the rifle a lot. I hate to see it discontinued.[:@]

Hell, no wonder it was cheap! If it was made in Illion, KENTUCKY it is NOT a Remington. It is obviously a counterfit!
