Having read many horror stories about Kimber rifles I kind of dismissed getting one even though I liked the weight and features. Last year a buddy sold me a Mtn. Ascent 280AI that shoots 1/2" groups with 2 different handloads using 140 Berger and 162 ELD-X bullets.
I recently traded a Marlin lever for a NIB Hunter Pro Desolve Blak in 6.5 manbun which also shoots 1/2" groups with Barnes 127 LRX bullets.
Neither rifle has had any issues at all. I'm happy with both of mine!
