Kimber rifle accuracy- Post MOA guarantee

[eaglemountainman]

Had a couple 7-08 pre guarantee that shot well and a few post that shot well too. Sounds like Montanas will be available again in May but only in 6.5cm, .308, 280ai, 300wm.

That would be great to see. Mind if I ask what your source is for this info?

They are up on euro optic for preorder right now. That is the timeframe they gave me but they did say tentatively.

You sure you don't want to sell or trade?

Looked for this on euro optic and couldn’t find it but I might have just missed it?

Checked kimbers website and they show the mountain ascent in some new camo stocks. For the life of me I can’t understand why they can’t just make green stocked montanas again. They shoot great, look sharp and we’re reasonably priced. Feel like the camo stocks are a fail.

I’ve been watching the europtic ones for a bit and have a notification on one. I just use their search and punch in Kimber Montana, scroll past the first few hunters it brings up and they have some Montanas listed.

Incase any of you folks are interested some new Montanas in 6.5 CM are starting to show up on Gunbroker.

Watch the video https://rokslide.com/forums/threads/weatherby-model-307-new-action-for-weatherby.312351/

At 3:17 ish there's a good slow mo on how the rifle recoils. My guess is the shooter on that shot left a lot on the table.

Getting a rifle to recoil straight back and consistently without massive muzzle jump is a key component in accuracy.

There is a .270 mountain ascent on gun broker right now. I would spend the money in a heartbeat on a Montana, but $600 extra for a little camo. I just cant bring myself to pay that high of a price.

Mountain ascent also has a fluted barrel, bolt, bolt know and extractor. But yeah I agree with you. I have a Montana and a mountain ascent and I dont really think the mountain ascent is worth the extra $$$

I’m kicking around building a custom rifle, but won’t plan to sell the 270 until I know it shoots. It’s hard to rationalize selling a really accurate lightweight rifle. I’ll keep you posted if I end up selling. Good luck with your search!

I agree but I'd bet the new Montanas will be near or at current Mountain Ascent prices.

 

[piercfh]

whenever I get enough posts to allow a PM. I'll shoot you one. Thanks MTW

I picked up a 6.5CM Montana in 2020 for $1100, and turned down a 270 Win for $1k. Between that and missing out on any of the Barrett Fieldcraft offerings, I have major lightweight rifle fomo. Hurts a little bit more every time a manufacturer drops a new $2k rifle that feels like a boat anchor at 8+ pounds bare.

I got my mountain ascent 300 win mag from a guy here for 1100.00 back in 2020 or so. That is one of the better scores I’ve had. I got my Montana 308 for around the same price. I just recently saw a Montana 6.5 creedmoor on gunbroker for 1300, that seemed like a good deal.

 

[piercfh]

I've moved on from 6.5. My interests are in what I can shoot with available components and ammo. There's tons of cool calibers in the Montana, but hell you cant buy brass to load for them, and a box of 20 will cost you an arm and a leg.

 

[piercfh]

Yes plenty of ammo and components for 6.5, but I'd rather have .270 or even .308. Saw a .243 Montana on Cabela's used guns. Talk about a great ladies or kids rig!
