RMEF Edition Kimber 30-naught 6

I've been craving a Montana in 308 for a few years now. I'm kinda hoping this might be the year I finally pull the trigger on one; unfortunately there a few items in front of it on the buy list.

Man, seems to be a lot of Kimber fans here. Maybe I should get an FFL and sell them "on the cheap" to my OYOA buddies.

I'd be cool with that. Nearly every dealer I've checked with is selling them for the same price, so a deal would be great.
 
Kimber's, wood or synthetic, are easy on the eyes...the euro slut Socko's...not so much, cept for the wood/blue with the red recoil pad model.

I agree with that!! Though I'd like a Montana right now, I really want a SuperAmerica for following my son around the hills when filling his tag's much more important than filling mine.

Just got an email saying that I get to take one of these - Kimber 84M Montana .308 for a test drive while filming the AK black bear episode. Thinking it will perform very well for the task at hand.

Will arrive as a package, sporting a nice Leupold VX-3 3.5-10X40.

Thinking if I beat the hell out of it, maybe they will let me keep it. Or, I might have to buy it at FMV, which given the damage it will likely incur, is probably not worth the frieght and hassle to ship it back.

Probably be shooting these Federal Trophy Bond bullets in 165 grain.

That little set up should treat you pretty sweet on a black bear trip.
 
Sounds like that might be the start of a great relationship.


Congrats
 
7 Shorty would work. Just don't plan on buying any factory rolled ammo in 3.21 years... ;) Since I don't buy it, ever, I wouldn't be skeered.

You still rockin' the Hubble on the 6# rifle?

Not cool! If I ever get around to purchasing one I'd be more likely to top mine with a VX3 2.5-8. Gotta keep it light since it starts out that way.
 
Congrats Randy! That's a sweet setup and I'm sure Kimber won't mind showing what their rifles can handle when you put them through the works.
 
I wouldn't call the 4.5-14 a Hubble, but that is definitely the largest (maybe even a bit bigger) than I'd put on that rifle. But, it obviously works for you. Weren't you use a 6-20 with AO on something (280 maybe?) a few years back? That's what I was remembering.
 
That's pretty cool Randy.
If you get them as a sponsor I guess you're still invited on my MT mountain goat hunt this year, I could handle carrying a Montana around on a hunt like that.
