Here are some photos of my Kimber. I had taken it on a hunting trip, that turned into a camping trip with my hunting rifle. <g> Nice 308 Win. Have a good day.

That's why they call it hunting not killing!
Great looking rifle, what caliber?

Is that a select, classic or SuperAmerica?

Classic
MDF, Obtained 100 rifles from Kimber. I think Kimber gave them nice looking guns. I have seen just 3 and they all looked nice. Mine shoots very well.

Hammerdown; Thanks for putting up the photos. I must say that is a striking piece of wood on that rifle. Indeed Kimber may have selected the wood, but whatever took place you certainly came out with a fine looking rifle. Thanks again, Dwayne

Nice rigs guyz! Me thinks Hammer that one of these days we'll have to get together and take that thing for a walk. For the smart kind of deer of course.

Had a bud looking for a "lightweight" rifle. Was going to build until some nice gent here insisted on a Kimber.
That 308 is light, shoots great and was what he was looking for.
They are very nice!
