Just saw this myself, hoping that Whitaker orchestrates a group buy, if not, just have to scrounge one up else where...should be dandy rigs.

Eurooptic must have been leaning forward a bit on this one. Eurooptic.com The threaded barrel should be interesting, might have to use an adapter to get to 5/8x24 though.

IS it a really going to happen? Anyone know a time frame when it is supposed to be available. I am assuming it will be around the 5.2-5.4 pound bare range.

oops, confused by the original question. Was thinking Montana Rifle Company, not Kimber Montana. But as a lefty, Kimber cares nothing about me, so I care nothing about them. One thing I know they won't be offering is LH models, because they do not hesitate to make that known every year.

They treat you guys like a red-headed step-child. My daughter is a lefty and I would love to get one for her.

Think the Longmaster should be offered in 6.5 CM also.

I'll do a group deal for you guys on the Kimber Montana 6.5 Creedmoor if you'd like. I'm at SHOT now and will meet with them.
I'll get back on later tonight to let you know the details...
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!

Ask them if there are any plans to do a rimfire in a Montana-like platform.

They won't twist it 12, unless they want to sell 2 of them. If the group buy is an 8 twist, I'd be interested in one.
