I have a Kimber and it is nice too, but I don't consider it an all around rifle. If you absolutely have to keep weight down under 6 lbs scoped it is the best game in town. The Kimber is plenty accurate, but I just shoot this a bit better overall and at 7 1/4 lbs scoped isn't really heavy.


I agree with this. The EW makes for a more practical all-round rifle at a sensible weight. Even with steel rings and the B&C stock it isn't exactly heavy. Talley lightweights and a Leupold 4x33mm would be about as meat and potatoes as you can get in .308.

The Featherweight SS would also fit very well if Winchester would see fit to make it a regular catalog item.
