[QUOTE="Buano, post: 451739, member: 21641"] 4th_point, I've had my hands on a few Kimber Montanas & several Tikkas, I even have a T3 in .270 WSM (that's for sale). It may be that some Tikkas are as light as Kimber Montanas in the same chambering. From my limited sampling it seemed the Tikkas were heavier, but not much & the Tikka is still a light rifle. I would love to see Kimber come out with a long-range version of the Montana, not necessarily a 1,500 yard gun, but one suited to 800 or possibly 1,000 yards. Seems they could do that by simply offering a slightly heavier profile barrel. I've known 2 people who scrapped their original Kimber Montana barrel & went with a heavier (but still sporter-weright) match-grade barrel. Both are now VERY HAPPY with their rifle & both wish the gun would have been offered in that configuration. [/QUOTE]
