WTS Kimber Mountain Ascent 280ai

[KingGus]

280ai Kimber Mountain Ascent in excellent condition. $1,500 to your FFL, PayPal (buyer pays the fees if any)

It's wearing a Montana stock recently installed by Kimber. The original stock had the notorious surface delamination issue.

I bought it new in 2020, and it has taken, sheep, moose, caribou, and bear with it since then. Great caliber in a very accurate rifle. My load for this rifle is 168gn Berger classic hunter's and 59gn of R-22. At the muzzle, it is doing 2,900fps. It's had 223 rounds down the barrel and has been fastidiously looked after.

Upgrades and included

• Titanium bolt handle
• MBM 4 port titanium self-timed break (I'll also include the original break).
• Talley lightweights 1" rings
• Talley lightweights 30mm rings

I'm selling to fund a 280ai chassis build I'm working on.

any clue what this gun weighs?

 

[KingGus]

5lbs 5.8oz without a break or rings

MBM break is 1.4oz

It’s very accurate sub .75 moa with 160gn tsx, 162gn eldx, and 168gn classic hunters. I have another Kimber in 7mm-08, and it is amazingly accurate also.

This is a three-shot cold bore zero check group from August before this year’s sheep hunt.


Kimber shot two groups after the new shock was fitted, and they’re both sub-Moa, which they sent me.

I'm assuming this is gone?

 

[KingGus]

Yeah, in the process; I'll update it once it's all said and done.
