I'd say your proper fooked.

The 308 84M MT is the no-brainer-of-the-decade award winner for the easiest to please, out of the box, UL hunting rifle.
I've tried to lead many to water, but most seemingly can't drink... their loss. The only reason I have never bought one was because I had already built and had pretty much decided to just stick with what I had. Gotta love dads... grin. Travis

Flave, you have a very thoughtful dad, sweet!
You are actually going with dots and no dial?
I thought you were fancier than that...
Brad, I have to ask.
Why don't you just keep one Montana and hunt with it(for more than 1 season)?
I just hate to sell a good shooting, good handling rifle that's setup and ready to go.
Flave, bet you buy another Montana, they are just so frikken handy.
SamO! Any man that was involved in raising me, can only be good. I love dots. Always have. Turrets are more of a play thing for me. I am thinking of a standard mil-dot reticle on this rig, in this scope. Could be perfection. Need one in .223....grin. Travis

Awesome your dad got that for you! I really like my 308 montana! So much so I am thinking about buying one for my dad! Enjoy the rifle and great shooting! You're a good son. Not as good as me, but still good. Travis

The 6x dots is a stone cold killa! I've got them on a .223 Montana along with an M1 ele. Not much sense in dialing until you get past 450 or so. Unless you really want to. Options are nice.
Screw you! I'm voting for Trump again!

Dober got me to try them shortly after I joined this sight.
Bought a laser.
That's back when Kimber had all the problems.
For a little while I was too chicken to buy one.
People (smarter than me)figured out little tweaks and Kimber also got their chit together and made a great hunting rifle.
Drunk talk now but I absolutely love the 243 Montana.

dad is very, very old and foolishly chose the .308 chambering. Since it was the thought that counts I forgave him and accepted the gift anyway.
Nothing further.

A Montana is tough to beat if you like a light, handy rifle built on a sweet little action with a really nice stock and a great trigger. I've been wanting to do a .243AI on one for awhile and am looking for a used SA to build on. I already have a ton of bullets and a scope for it. It really is a tough one to trump.
My two month old .223 is getting AI'd with a PacNor 1-8" right soon and not because the factory barrel wouldn't shoot.
Screw you! I'm voting for Trump again!

I keep getting temptation thrown at me at my LgS. They have a Montana in270wsm. That they just can't sell around here and as of my last visit the price is down to 850. Getting in range for a donor - screw on a 7 SAUM or WSM.

A Montana in .223 is even more fun than the .308. You'll love it.

Travis - that is an awesome gift from your Dad. I hope you never sell/trade that one.

I have a few of these and really like them. All of mine shoot well so the roullette is paying off. I had a hard time not hunting my Montana .25-06 this year. It got a lot of field time.

Congrats Travis, I figure your Dad's a good man and I know you're a good, well deserving son. I hope it brings you many happy and memorable outings. I hate the Montana as a hunting rifle...just too light for me. It's a great looking combo and I'm sure w/that accuracy that ma nature will have to be on her toes. powdr
