Was wondering how accurate Kimbers varmint rifles were. I'm looking at the .223 SVT. Any help would be appreciated.

b beyerKimber rifles are like any other, they may, over the long run average a bit more accurate, but each rifle has to be eveluated on its own. Some good, some not so good. Like is said so often, ya pays ya money and ya takes ya chances.

Bigdog2I'd say your chances of being pleased with the results would be high
I don't know how much money they are going for now days, but if you are looking for real-time accuracy, I would get a Remington 700, and have it barreled by a benchrest smith. He will use the best barrels available, and will do the work the way it should be done. It takes the "try and see" out of it, for the most part. Put it in a HS stock, bedded right, and you got a first rate gun.

if you used a sps or spss 700 and rebarreled it and restocked it, it ends up costing slightly more than a kimber varmint. if you didnt restock it it would be cheaper.
probably be more accurate too
