Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Need some new rifle suggestions.

This Kimber looks really good, at first glance.



The problem is, it will only do it with a warm barrel. Which does pretty damn little good on a light 7mm-08. The first 3 from a cold barrel were more like 4 inches when I started, maybe about 2-2.5 after fire lapping, tuning, a variety of handloads. It will get a new barrel this year.

So they may have improved their QC, but they also made a bunch of stinkers. This barrel is very poor and rough inside (and yeah I do own a borescope) The rifle's design is nice, but whoever allowed those barrels onto them need their asses fired.
