Found this baby on the used rack at a local Gander Mountain earlier this year. Pretty sure they didn't have clue what they had, as indicated by their asking price. I was more than happy to oblige and in no short order I was the proud new owner. Fortunately, it shoots as good as it looks. It's scoped with a Leupold VX-II 2-7x33 in factory rings/bases that will soon be replaced with Talleys.

It's my favorite out of all rifles I have ever owned, and I've tried quite a few looking for what I wanted. Got some pics of mine in the Small Game section here, didn't want to butt in on yours. I wish Kimber had not halted production of their .22's. They should at least bring back the Hunter model.

The 'Hunter' was the most accurate of the lot. As mentioned by someone else, sold 'em and been kicking myself ever since. Great find for you. Enjoy! V

The people at Kimber told me they had to quit making .22's because there was so much demand for handguns. “Montana seems to me to be what a small boy would think Texas is like from hearing Texans.” John Steinbeck

I fell in love with my Kimber "Hunter" because of it's beautiful wood in 2006 and with the right ammunition it's very accurate (groups not as small as the test target but darn close at times). You done good; enjoy it. Semper Fi
