I am going deer hunting in some pretty big fields after I finish this coffee. I want a magnum for the longer shots ready. The magnum I have been bringing of late has been the Kimber Montana 7mm WSM however my Kimber 270 WSM will do about the same thing.

The Kimber weighs 7# 6oz with it's 3-9 Conquest which is less than what a M70 Featherweight goes! Also it's balance is more forward what with it's longer barrel.

I just handled those Kimbers and have one here beside me. I also just handled the old M70 that I used to use a lot. The Kimber action is really nice in those 8400's and their safety superior to the Win.

My suggestion is to search for a Kimber in 7mm WSM and if you don't find one by next summer to get one in 270 WSM.

I don't have any want for a 270 either but the calibers really overlap and that Kimber is really fine.
