Having shot at least 1/2 dozen 300 WSM's including Kimbers, I don't know if I could tell much difference between the different 300 WSM's and or a 7 WSM. The Kimbers are light but have well designed stocks with excellent recoil pads. I don't find them at all uncomfortable to shoot but I do have a somewhat dead shoulder. I haven't fired a Montana in WSM yet but I'd bet that the slight recoil absorbtion in sythetic stocks make up for their lighter weight over the standard 8400's. I think if you can shoot 1 WSM you should be able to shoot any of them........DJ
