Ok, glad it will work. The Kimber's balance isn't great in smaller calibers....it will only be made worse by removing metal. Not sure how to punch a few holes in the butt of a Montana.


Though no expert, I was under the impression the OP was with regard to the 84L and it was a wood stocked rifle and not a Montana. Help me out here as I am not a Kimber buff?

Conduct is the best proof of character.
