I bought one last year and have fired about 200 rounds. Iron site accuracy was about the 4" low. Due to my 50 year old eyes i removed the rear sight and bought a NECG peep which fits weaver bases i can shoot a 1.5-2" group at 50 yards. With a scope at 100 yards my groups were 1.5" for 5 shot groups. Probably more my limitations than the gun's. The gun feeds and ejects flawlessly and i have worked the action as fast as possible with no issues.This rifle will be going with me to Zim in 2009 for a buffalo hunt.
This is my 4th kimber rifle one of them was a lemon difficult feeding amd mediocre accuracy 3" groups at 100 yards i just returned it to Cabelas for a refund. One consistent theme about Kimber is quality control and poor customer service. I have never sent a rifle to them for service but have sent handguns and was happy with the response and the resolution.
I hope your friend resolves his issues it really is a beautiful rifle.
