I tossing around the idea of doing another lightweight Predator rifle with a Kimber Montana specifically. I'm looking for a 204 or a 223. A Kimber Varmint in either one of those calibers could be made to work also. Has anyone seen one for sale?

Sadly, Kimber seems to have done away with their .22 centerfire Montanas (lightweight synthetic stock, light-sporter contour barrel). Its a shame because they shot well and are a joy to carry.
However, Kimber Varmint rifles are all over Gunbroker (walnut stock, heavy-sporter contour barrel).

k22, Didn't you have a 204 and 223 in the Montana's? I had 2 204's. One of them I rebarreled to a 17 Rem. Now I'm thinking I'd like to rebarrel one to a 17-204.

I would have thought Q could hook you up... That was helpful. K22, got a buddy with a .223 that might be interested in selling. He's debating a 6x45. I'll find out and let you know. My 223 is the second to the last gun that will go if I ever get that desperate.

Jackmountain's buddy decided to keep his Montana and I don't blame him, so I'm still looking. As I was advised to, I contacted Q, but neither Pres. Trump nor Dan Scavino (White House Deputy Chief of Staff ) knew of any Kimber Montana's in 223 nor 204 for sale.  Therefore, I'm still looking if anyone knows of one for sale.
