Get the .243
It wasn't until I bought a .257 that I started reading reviews online & while Kimber have had their issues across the board, the .257 Hunter is the most universally complained about version. I couldn't find a single honest (not paid for....) review, complimenting it's accuracy. I couldn't get anything better than a 3" average group with any bullet from 87 to 120gr & it turns out, I wasn't alone. Seems like about 90% of owners said the exact same thing. Some managed to improve it with a dickload of reloading fenagling. Others, myself included, just offloaded the damn things at a loss.
