EdM Campfire 'Bwana E Joined: Nov 2002 Posts: 33,727 Likes: 2 Either Texas or Idaho	I bought these two used Kimbers over the past few weeks at two different LGS's. The Montana went for $1k OTD and the Mountain Ascent went for $1.4k as scoped OTD. The Montana had been there for weeks. I still need to shoot them but the weather has not been cooperating. I am not a fan of the MA sharp bolt handle. Conduct is the best proof of character.

I am not a fan of the MA sharp bolt handle. I couldnt have passed either up...definitely not into a 6.5 tho. Love to find a MA in 708. Hell id just love to find a Montana in 243...threaded. Only owned one Kimber and went for good wood. Regretting selling that one and not buying Montanas or MA's when they were a plenty.

Some of the bullets have sold to friends, but it looks like I will be the rest in the classifieds. Thanks for everyone’s input, it reinforced what I estimated as for value in this market.

With the recent price hike they are likely getting a good deal. Congrats to both.
