Traded raybass a Weatherby UL in .270 for the Kimber. Low round count, no Kimber roulette. I have bedded the lug tight as well as the floorplate assembly and refinished the stock so all the pores as filled. Metal is in great shape no scratches and such. Little fading at the muzzle and a very small ding that I did not fix when the stock was redone. I can fix it if a deal breaker but it's just not that bad. Shoot Accubonds and Hornady IL's into small groups. Haven't tried anything else. $900 shipped to include insurance, tracking, etc. Not interested in any trades at the moment. Funds are already "assigned" to something else. Talley LW go with it, scope does not.

Rebarrel to 275 Rigby.
On a serious note, this is a very nice rifle!

Can you give an approximate group size with the 140 accubond?

Didn't shoot 140's. Just 130's. Shoots the same with H4831sc.

That is about how my Montana 270 shoots the 130 Accubonds as well. Great looking rifle.

On a serious note, this is a very nice rifle! I've been tempted to buy a donor for that very thing. As soon as I did, Kimber would make it a factory offering.

With the number of factory loads available for the .270 I'm reasonably certain more than one would suffice. If I didn't reload, Federal Fusion would be first on the list.

Great guy and a good gun.
I have a 270 win. shoots great. So I have no need right now.
If I did, this would be a good buy.

Nice rifle Karnis!! Bump for a great deal and great guy..
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA
