Picked up a Kimber .243 the other day, and man, does it shoot. Got a bobcat last weekend with it, do fur damage due to shooting it in the bottom of the neck. Also, shot MY T-Post at 128 yards on a bet....I won the bet.....

While I have a battery of old M70's, 99's and FN's I had been searching for something new, something better and lighter as well.

Someone said that the Brno 21/22 carbines were the finest production rifle ever made so I got a couple of those. Then I got a couple of Kimber 84M Classics and they were lighter and shot well.

When Kimber came out with the Montanas I got one in 243 and its perfect out of the box. Then a 270 WSM Kimber Montana became my long range gun finally I have a 308 Kimber and I am satisfied and have stopped looking at more or other guns.

I'm with savage99. I bought a montana .243 and love it. When Kimber came out with the special edition french walnut WSM's, I bought one in .300. It too shoots sub-moa. Recently I took delivery on a custom ultra-light .338 that was a POS! After sending it back for "corrections" it still looked like an apprentices' project, the weight was no less than my Kimber 8400, and accuracy was not as good. After several months of haggling, I finally recieved a refund. I spoke with a tech guy at Kimber and he said there would be a .338 Montana in the future. He didn't say when, but I am waiting. I can't see spending another 3K on a custom when Kimber makes what I want for 1K.

Anyone using the Kimber Longmaster in either .243 or .308?
