Up for Sale is my Kimber 8400 Montana 6.5/300 WSM, including the Leupold 3.5-10x40mm M3 Long Range 3/4 Mil-Dot scope in Mark 4 steel rings on top of a Murphy Precision 20 MOA pic mount made from Titanium.

The rifle and scope are both in mint/like almost in new condition with only a few scratches on the scope finish from my bino bag while hunting with it and a rub mark on the blind mag portion of the stock from a Pig Saddle. Which I will show pictures of any flaws the best I can.

Specs: Shilen Select Match #4 Ratchet 4 groove 1:8" Twist 24" bbl. All work was completed by Shilen 06/15/2011 other than opening up the stock that they had someone else do.

Comes with:
#5) 50 ct. bags of Winchester 270 WSM brass
Redding Custom 6.5/300 WSM Reloading Die Set along w/the Replacement Bullet Seating Micrometer #09167 VLD to the set.
#40) 6.5/300 WSM 140 gr SMK ammo 66.5/Retumbo, F215M @ 2.950" COAL 3055 fps.
#14) 6.5/300 WSM 140 gr Sierra Game King Ammo, 65.0/Retumbo, F215M @ 2.890"-2.900" 3050 fps.

I bought the rifle new in 2004, put only 95 rounds throughout it before sending it to Shilen, Inc. Kimber did a tune up on the trigger after buying it. It's super crisp like most Kimber Rifles.

The rifle as it sits today 11/21/2024 has only 143 rounds down the barrel now, but I will shoot 7 @ 100 yards, and 250 yards to show how well it preforms, and/or chronograph it again as it's been a while. So it will have 150 rounds through it in the next few days if I do that when the weather stops snowing or raining.

I'll more than likely end up hating that I sold this super accurate light weight hunting rifle setup, but honestly, I hate recoil! All of my competition NRL/PRS rifle are in the 14.5-18 pound range, and not anything bigger than a 308 Winchester! I have a Lon Paul 458 Lott that weighs 9.5 lbs., but that's only for dangerous game, and a Custom GAP 280 AI for the rest of my hunting needs.

If it does not sell... Oh well, I guess it wasn't meant to be!

$3,250.00 USPS MO, Personal check after it clears, or Zelle. Shipped to your FFL from My FFL, or FTF local CdA, ID.

Pictures to fallow ASAP.
 
Does Not include the bipod. The scope has four (4) elevation caps to match either a 55 gr 223 Remington, a 168 SMK 308 Winchester, a 180 gr 30-06 Sprg. and a 190 gr SMK from a 300 Win. Mag. Which is what's on it now that matches the ballistics perfectly!

Dial the yards, plus or minus and fire…. Works perfectly every time.

Shot this off the bipod just prior to our hunting season a month and a half ago.
140 SMK and the 140 SGK shoot to the same POI. This was with the Match Kings since I only had 14 Game Kings to hunt with for the entire season.
