Supposing one came across a NIB Kimber 8400 Montana in the long discontinued and hard to find 7mm WSM chambering.

What would some people pay for such a rifle?

A local dealer had one last year he'd had forever. I think it sold (new) for $950. I wish I'd bought it instead of the POS 7/08 84M I did buy.

They are as elusive as a leprachaun now. I would say $1000-$1200 would be in the price range.

The local shop here has an 8400 Classic in 7wsm that's been on the shelf FOREVER. I keep thinking I'll walk in one day and it will be gone, but it hasn't happened yet. Been gathering dust for yearzzzzzzzz....

No -- but I'll check tomorrow. I'm certain it's less than $1000. They used to sell new 84m Classics for $859. It will be late afternoon, but I'll send you a PM.

I sold mine a couple of years back for $1400 shipped w/ talleys, dies, and some brass. It was in pretty good shape, but certainly not new in box.

I did notice that Prophet River has one in 300 wsm for 1139-ish.

That's gotta be Whittakers. I bought my Kimber Bobs from them a few years back...

Heck, JimD has a Classic 7WSM in the classifieds for $750 or thereabouts!

Kimber7man,

You are correct - it is Whittakers!So you're the guy who got the bobs before I could generate the funds. Did you get the Montana and the Classic Select?

Turner's Outdoorsman down in Reseda, CA had a Montana 7WSM for sale a few weeks ago, around $950ish.
