Up for Sale is my Kimber 8400 Montana 6.5/300 WSM, includes the Leupold 3.5-10x40mm M3 Long Range 3/4 Mil-Dot scope in Steel Mark 4 rings on top of a Murphy Precision 20 MOA pic mount made from Titanium.
The rifle and scope are both in mint/like almost in new condition for a twenty year old rifle with only a few scratches on the scope finish from my bino bag while hunting with it, and a rub mark on the blind mag portion of the stock from being mounted into a Pig Saddle. Which I will show pictures of any flaws the best I can.
I bought the rifle new in 2004, and put only 95 rounds throughout it before sending it to Shilen, Inc. Kimber did a tune up on the trigger after buying it in 2006. It's super crisp like most Kimber Rifles.
Specs: Shilen Select Match #4 Ratchet 4 groove 1:8" Twist 24" bbl. All work was completed by Shilen (06/15/2011) other than opening up the stock that they had someone else do.
Comes with:
#5) 50 ct. New bags of Winchester 270 WSM brass.
Redding Custom 6.5/300 WSM Reloading Die Set along w/the Replacement Bullet Seating Micrometer #09167 VLD to the set.
#40) 6.5/300 WSM 140 gr SMK ammo 66.5/Retumbo, F215M @ 2.950" COAL 3055 fps. (These were developed only for practice on steel.)
#14) 6.5/300 WSM 140 gr Sierra Game King Ammo, 65.0/Retumbo, F215M @ 2.890"-2.900" 3050 fps.
The rifle as it sits today 11/21/2024 has only 143 rounds down the barrel now, but I will shoot 7 @ 100 yards, and 250 yards to show how well it preforms, and/or chronograph it again as it's been a while. So it will have 150 rounds through it in the next few days if I do that when the weather stops snowing or raining.
I'll more than likely end up hating that I sold this super accurate light weight hunting rifle setup, but honestly, I hate recoil! All of my competition NRL/PRS rifle are in the 14.5-18 pound range, and not anything bigger than a 308 Winchester! I have a Lon Paul 458 Lott that weighs 9.5 lbs., but that's only for dangerous game hunting, and a Custom GAP 280 AI for the rest of my hunting needs.
If it does not sell... Oh well, I guess it wasn't meant to be!
$3,250.00 USPS MO, Personal check after it clears, or Zelle. Shipped to your FFL from My FFL, or FTF local CdA, ID.
Cross listed, any prior sale may effect a “I’ll take it”. I’m not interested in playing with people’s emotions when thinking they have bought something, and finding out something else after the fact. It’ll go to the time stamp on the forum if it gets down to that.
Pictures to fallow ASAP.
