I've owned 5 Kimber Montanas, and 2 recently manufactured Winchesters. The Kimbers shot as well or better than the Winchesters, and both Winchesters had issues.

In the future if I go to buy a Winchester Model 70, it will have been manufactured before 1964.


I own pre-war 30-06, transition 270 WCF, 54 supergrade 257 Roberts, 58' 243 featherweight, 52' 300 h&h, push feed 7x57 and 6.5x55, 4 New Haven classics, SC Extreme Weather and SC FW Deluxe. NO ISSUES. I would still buy kimbers, but only thier 1911s.
