Does anyone have the weight of a factory barrel for the Kimber Montana in 308.
Again, just weight of the barrel.
Thanks

I have a take off Montana barrel in 7mm-08.
Is that close enough?

I used to have all these written down. Might be able to find them later. However, with Teeder's 7-08, just subtract an ounce and you'll be right there for the 308.

Without looking at notes I can’t seem to find, I want to say it’s just under 2 pounds. See what teeder’s scale says.

7mm-08 / threaded with the cap = 1lb 14-7/8oz
.270 / 24" unthreaded = 2lbs 2-7/8oz

I couldn't find all my notes, but did find a notation that the 7-08 MT barrel is 1.1 oz heavier than the 308 MT barrel.
