New Kimber Mountain Ascent 799 bucks

You’re probably right about the fluted bolt. I was expecting an action feel similar to my Montana, but the Montana doesn’t have a fluted bolt. I do think breaking it in will improve it.
 
They have a wood stocked 30-06 for $799 up now. They’ve added a bunch of wood stocked rifles to inventory. I’m still holding out hope for a 7-08 or the 6.5 again
 
I hope they are not dropping production of their rifles completely and are just clearing out these models to make room for some updated versions.

Either way, I'm now in for two. If they put up a Mountain Ascent in 280 AI I'll be in for three and another earful from the wife about already having enough guns and similar nonsense...

Sadly I think the writing is on the wall.
 
Picked up my Mojave today--it's really not much to look at, but the ergos and weight are phenomenal.

On a sidenote, does anyone know the dimensions/thread pattern on the (blind) front trigger screw on a Montana? I picked up a spare stock and trigger guard just in case I want to make a conversion out of this or a Hunter in the future, but I need the front screw that comes in from the top to secure the trigger guard.
