Sam,

Did you call Kimber and specify a longer screw when ordering? My 270 Montana, bought here on the 'fire, was bedded by the PO and the screws grabs but two threads at best.


I'm onto my second 270 Kimber Montana. The first one was the same. One and a half thread contact. The second Montana had a longer screw. Perfect size, go figure. Serial no. 4831 :-)


Can you please tell me which action screw on the Montana is sometimes too short and needs to be replaced with the Remington 700 screw? Is it the rear action screw on the Montana back by the tang?

Thanks and best of luck with your new rifle.
