It really likes the Nosler factory 140gr accubonds. Am not reloading any more. I have some 162gr Hornady precision hunter ammo, it shot that ok. I have part of a box of Nosler 150gr long range accubonds, it shot those good too. The 155gr federal terminal ascent I didn't shoot enough to really know if it likes those or not.
With as well as its shooting factory loads I wonder how well it would shoot reloads? I have a press, I just don't have dies, powder, primers or bullets.
Overall if a person were to put a nice light leupold scope on it you would have one heck of a back country rifle or sheep rifle. I have really bad eye sight so I need a little stronger scope. I think Kimber says the gun is 5.5 pounds, I have a burris on it and brings total weight of rifle and scope to right around 7.5 lbs. Thats still pretty light. I have my eye on a different rifle, so the 280AI has to go.
