Light rifles are tough to shoot.


Truth. 5lb rifles are harder to shoot well then heavier rifles. I think the Kimber roulette meme is a hold over from some QC issues they had years ago combined with the difficultly of benching an ultralight rifle. Most of the threads and posts I see on the Hunters today are positive, I wouldn't be scared at all to pick one up.

I've been plenty happy with my Montana, I actually have a Hunter stock and didn't see any accuracy difference between my bedded Montana stock and my Hunter stock.

A decent chambering and 14oz of suppressor hanging off the end help, but I'm not afraid to play Kimber roulette again, especially if the alternative is a Salvage Axis.
