After comparing two handloads and a factory load in my 24" barreled Talkeetna and a friend's 19.5" barreled .375 H&H I decided to cut the barrel back to 22". I agree with you re the stock, but Krieger never made the Talkeetna and Caprivi barrels.
I don't know about the current production, but previously Kimber did indeed purchase their Talkeetna and Caprivi barrels from Krieger. The front and rear sites from NECG and the barrel bands from Gentry.
This from campfire member "Headache" whom is a Senior Design Engineer for Kimber, and was the lead on the Talkeetna and Caprivi rifles.
