I like the classic

Have a 7-08 and a K22 with 2 position safety

Never liked the blond wood and the ugly engraved FP of the "select"

Didnt know they engraved the plate. Once I saw Cheesy's rifle, I was hooked..



to find one with that kind of wood, that I can afford...well gonna be tough. but thats next years wish list.

I've only dinked with two Kimbers and they functioned/shot great.

FP on select's I've seen say "select grade"

Thanks. Ya I dont think I care for that much myself.

Had a 325 wsm Montana. Accuracy was good and weight, egos, and style was superb. Kinda wish I still has it but 325 wsm is a little more than I need although the Montana stock and pad goes a long way in negating recoil.


Need to get another one day. Maybe 7 wsm.

The Classics are really nice looking rifles. My brother has a couple, though, and he always seems to be tinkering with it, trying a new load.

I'm going to order a set of Talleys for my Montana, (and a known good scope) since Stick has sworn that's the hot ticket. If it still acts weird with a cold barrel, it shall get a new barrel.

With lightweight rifles you have to have good shooting techniques i think most guys dont have that. So they blame the rifle and not their piss poor shooting technique. A heavy rifle will make up for bad form. I had a kimber montana in a 325 wsm that thing was a shooter. I lost her in the delta river when my 6x6 ranger went for a ride. I need to pick up another one but i have winchesters now but i do neef a 300 wsm.

What scope and rings are on it now? Pretty basic stuff to sort.
