I went on their site yesterday to order at least one more also. I should have bought at least one more when I ordered. Darn.

One shot to confirm rough sight-in after eyeballing down the bore and next three 140 Hornady Match went 3/4”. Some handloads with 140 ELD-M wasn’t as good but it was so foggy I couldn’t really see the 100 yd berm nor bull so rolled it up.
Should be good.....

Sounds good. I just picked mine up today. Very straight grained. But still good for the $$’s.

Got to fondle one at the SW the other day, I don't really need another 6.5 Kimber, but it was a very nice little rig.

I broke down and bought one at SW today. It was $899 but I got another $50 off for getting their Visa and I'll get another $50 gift card if I put another $500 on the Visa in 90 days or so.
I don't normally sign up for store cards but i felt compelled to minimize my loss for dragging my feet when Whittaker's had them. Plus I was able to choose from 3. One had a warp on the forearm so it was up against one side on the barrel channel not floated at all.
The one I got was centered and the wood looks ok.

Adjusted the trigger down to 2.5 lbs. Not a bad trigger. All else looks good. Waiting for the Leupold rail. Haven't checked throat length yet...but got time to do that.

Anyone who missed one of these, I have one on layaway at Whitaker’s and we could work out a deal. Handled one the other day locally and the stock just does not fit me well. PM me if interested

I missed the Whittaker's sale! I missed the Sportsman's Warehouse sale! But I got one today from Sportsman's Warehouse for the $799 Whittaker's Sale Price. I love price matching! ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/Vs35PG3g/01-DDB146-35-CE-40-CD-BC30-63-F47033-C542.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/BZ8ty9wt/F134021-A-4-B4-B-4-A02-8-A40-C22-A2-B0-B1-B51.jpg)

MCH,
That wood looks real nice! I think it is the lighting and the Bear rug helping it out. It is ok in real life. Good enough for a rifle that is going to get used. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/FRLP8NWb/1-C0-D960-C-D120-45-A5-A481-4-EC7-CE48-A5-B3.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/PJbSfKkP/30-B3713-B-C68-E-4761-A08-E-386-F0-A17-C840.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/hvRCq66k/53-BA67-E4-DA63-41-E9-B8-F3-56942-BF34-CB1.jpg)

I was just Happy to get the Price Match from Sportsman's Warehouse My Sportsmans warehouse wouldn't match. But then they've never matched anything for me, not even the gun store across town. Surprised they matched Whittaker's for you given they are out of stock. Bb

I paid a bit more for mine but no regrets. It's a nice rifle and although I typically prefer synthetic this rifle points and balances extremely well.

I can take a picture of my receipt if you want to show your store that other Sportsman's Warehouse's are price matching.
