A rebarrel cures about anything that cain't be cured by less invasive procedures.
So, approach the Kimber from the perspective that you want one; you want that light action and damn nice stock and trigger. It'll likely shoot fine. If not, dab bed... crown... at this point you've almost certainly got a shooter.
And if THAT fails, $400-$600 puts a very fine barrel on there. And that's fun too.
Kimbers are worthy build platforms...
That is definitely one way to look at it. And, that's exactly what I did with a .308 Kimber Classic that wouldn't shoot. A $500 Broughton 5C cured that problem and now I have a great rifle that I use a lot, a real keeper.
