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 bottom metal on these now?

Anyone get a green and black Peak version in yet? Seen a few Mojaves now

 

[Feral Jared]

Both of mine will be, but havent shipped yet

Picking one up in .308 this afternoon. I’ll try to get some pics up later today if someone doesn’t beat me to 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...

I want a 300wsm

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.

Mine was finally delivered today. I’m impressed.

Just picked up my .308 Peak. I might like this color scheme a little more than the Mojave. Pretty slick little rifle. Here’s a few pics. Let me know if you want to see anything specific.

 

[Jusgunn3]

Looks nice!

 

[ADKHTR]

Yup these pictures are killing me, now I want one bad and I had my chance several times already… I think a person literally has to keep refreshing the page every chance you get to score one…

In today’s world, this is a rifle value we’ll talk about for a long time. It reminds me of the $299 surplus SKS deal around 2020 on PSA.

Oh yeah, I like that a lot more than the Mojave... what a sharp rifle

Initially I thought I was disappointed I missed out on the Mojave pattern, but that Peak looks great! Also considered cancelling the 7mag, but I don’t think I will. The 243 is getting chopped to 16” and threaded 5/8-24 shortly after it shows up. That’ll replace my 6arc howa mini.

Or the $1100 .25-06 Fieldcrafts at Whittakers when they were discontinued that I definitely don't still think about missing out on 7 years later

You won't be able to go 5/8 on a Kimber. 1/2 works great, then adapter or swap your HUB
