Don't get me wrong, I adore Kimber rifles. Have Kimber Select and Classic 8400's in 300WM, Select 8400 in 25-06 and a Classic in 338WM.
Have had Selects in 270, 25-06 & 300WM that I sold with my business, as they are one of 3 actions I prefer building customs on turning them into switch barrels.
Their actions are faultless.
Had to reduce my total number of rifles to 15 at each property, our stupid laws dictate this…
Cheers.

I love my Oregon built 243 Montana! It has treated me well and has done its part from coyotes to mulies. More than 3 shots between cooling down is a waste though.
That being said, I picked up one used in 30-06 recently and can't seem to get a load better than 1 3/16". Haven't given up yet. It had been a bit abused…barrel shortened to 23", scope mounts JB Welded in place. Not a good thing. If I give up on it, the barrel will be changed to a 280 AI and I'll try again. But for now I'll tinker with it until I give up.
