Got 5 Montanas, 3 are 223, one 6 BR and a 308. Haven't shot the new 6.5 CM, but it has a wood stock. So far not having any problems with any of them.

I have had a 270 Montana for a number of years and it is a great rifle. Last summer I came across a 30-06 Subalpine NIB at a shop up north fairly priced so it came home. I had it out a few weeks ago for the first time and it is also a shooter. Great rifles all around IME.

Go for the Kimber!


If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

Define wrong. Kimber roulette isn't a thing? I coined the term outta thin air? You Kimber fanboys are something else.

Or wrong as in my brand new Kimber 84M wouldn't/couldn't chamber a factory round of ammunition; and that no amount of force could get the bolt to go into battery? Or am I wrong that the 5" 1911 couldn't make it through a single mag of 230g ball without choking?

Sooo...which wrong am I?

What would someone with a 17,000 post count know about anything? "AlwaysIndoors" seems a more appropriate handle for you.

I’m not a Kimber fan necessarily. But you’re still wrong, boy.

No, it’s a general term for the uneducated .

I have two Montanas, in 7-08 and 257 Roberts, and a Classic Select in 7-08. All three function and shoot very well. The Classic Select is one of the most accurate rifles I own.

OP, if you can find one, go for it...

I have two 223’s. My brother and a friend has them too. Everyone really likes them. I had a 270wsm that shot well and my stepdad had a 280AI that was real accurate with 120’s. I wish I would have picked up a couple 243’s when they could be had for $8-$900 used.

Good luck. Hope you get a good one.

I’ve bought 3 on the used market.

.308 Classic that shoots great (<1” groups)

.257 Roberts Classic Select that shoots great and looks even better (<1” groups)

.30-06 Classic Select that shoots ok (1”-1.5” groups), but looks great.

They’re my favorites in the safe.

Not very many for sale now compared to 5 or 10 years ago.

I have 2 Montanas, 223 and 270, 257 classic select. I've had others about 10 total. The 257 is the only one I couldn't get to shoot less than an inch but I really liked the wood so I had a new barrel put on it little heavier contour I really like it.
