I bought the Kimber Montana in 300 WSM when they first appeared. I also bought a box of Federal 180 TSX to get started with. I fitted a Leupold 1.75-6 on it and went to the range.
The first few shots convinced me that I had a winner and I just bought more of same ammo and never reloaded for it. It killed a few moose and caribou as well
as a couple grizzlies and one dall sheep. My surgeon buddy loves to hunt but has no time to experiment with rifles so I gave it to him after he did some surgery for me.
He killed moose and caribou and took it to Africa where he killed several plains game. It's been a hell of a rifle! Unfortunately, we lost him last year so I'm coaching his son about the
rifle and what to do with it..

Others are correct in that the stock seems to mitigate recoil. It's one of the better all around rifles I've ever owned.
