    Sold Kimber Montana 300WSM

    Bought this rifle with the intention of rebarreling to 6.5 PRC, but at the end of the day I’m a tight wad. With that being said, I’d like to trade for another stainless (will not consider blued or wood stocks) Kimber in 270 Win, 270 WSM, 7 WSM, 25-06, or 280AI. I’d like another Montana but...

    Kimber Montana 8400 Rebarrel

    The original owner said he had a hard time shooting it and actually sent it to Kimber thinking there was something wrong. They sent it back with a 1/2” target. I think I’d better not shoot it as a 300WSM if I want to follow through with this or I might be stuck with another 30 cal that I don’t need.

    Kimber Montana 8400 Rebarrel

    I would and have considered something like a fast twist 270WSM or even the 6.8 Western. But that would require getting back into handloading, which I just got out of. Kind of why I’m leaning 6.5 PRC. Lots of great factory ammo already available, and more being added. Heck, just bought three...

    Kimber Montana 8400 Rebarrel

    Wow, very cool and very similar to what I’m hoping to do. McGowen is making me nervous with the current thread on their barrels, but a fair number of respectable Roksliders, including you, have had good luck with them. Do I roll the dice… their prices are reasonable and by most accounts, their...

    Kimber Montana 8400 Rebarrel

    If you don’t mind sharing, what was the cost on the rebarrel? PM if you’d prefer but if you don’t want to share, no problemo. Thanks for the info either way

    Kimber Montana 8400 Rebarrel

    I wish I still lived in Fairbanks and I’d definitely have him do it. I’ve seen some of his work and it looks great. Being down yonder these days, I might try to keep it more local to me. I’d also like the barrel maker to do the rebarrel. Seems like less potential for a blame game if something...

    Kimber Montana 8400 Rebarrel

    Good info. I’m planning on matching factory at least to the tip of the forend, so I won’t be altering the stock. I might request a heavier contour via less taper after the forend though (Lilja’s mod8400 contour). We’ll see.

    Kimber Montana 8400 Rebarrel

    I have a Kimber Montana 8400 in 300WSM on the way that I’d like to rebarrel in 6.5 PRC. 3” mag box should work well enough. Anyone on here done this or similar? If so, who did your barrel and who did the work? Results? I’ve read a lot about Pac-Nor rebarreling Kimbers but I was thinking about...

    Peak 44 Backcountry stock

    Just spoke with Peak 44 and the CS agent said a Tikka inlet is something they’re actively working on and he’d be “disappointed if they didn’t have it out within the year”. That will be an awesome option for a semi-custom Tikka

    1/2x28 Threaded 30 Cal Rifles - Suppressor Horror Stories

    I started this thread in the hopes of finding some actual stories of issues, but in all my reading here and elsewhere, I have yet to read about any issues from someone who has actually done it. Only theories about wall thickness and thread roots from naysayers 🤷‍♂️. Not saying issues haven’t...

    Painless load development (mine)

    “I don’t think that all the little adjustments that handloaders make are necessarily swinging the pendulum vast amounts of precision. It can look like that with small samples, but it really isn’t like that”. - Brian Litz Blows my mind that people dismiss the things that Form says when the...

    This place? https://barrettfirearmstore.com/contact/ That looks awful scammy to me.

    Fieldcraft is about to be back on the menu boys

    I would love to see them put out a few of those 9 twist 270s they had on the website! And I’ve got ONE question for this new guy… Does he want to sell me that 243?

    1/2x28 Threaded 30 Cal Rifles - Suppressor Horror Stories

    A few good examples in here of no issues with a suppressor on a 30 cal rifle with 1/2” threads. I’d like to keep the tally going with either good or bad. What else do we have?

    1/2x28 Threaded 30 Cal Rifles - Suppressor Horror Stories

    The internet seems to have two camps. People who run a suppressor on 1/2x28 threaded 30 cal rifles with no issues and people, including gunsmiths and manufacturers, who say it's a bad idea. I am only interested in two responses to this thread: Response 1.) "I run a suppressor on a (insert 30...
