I have never owned a Kimber. Actually, I did own a synethetic 8400 once but never shot it - anyway, I was out shooting my .264 Win mag yesterday and came to the realization that I want a lighter, more nimble rifle. I have been thinking I might try a Kimber 84m. I prefer wood and so I would probably not choose the Montana. How do you guys like your 84m as a pure deer/antelope rifle? I see they no longer are made in .260 - was there some problems with that caliber? Would you buy a used one? I seee lots of them for sale with rings and bases and am hesitant for fear I might be getting a turd. Anybody have one in .308, and if so, how's the recoil in such a light rifle? Please let me know what you think of them. They sure seem attractive with their smaller dimensions and weight.
Thanks!
Light barrels don't shoot.
