[QUOTE="sfdoc2000, post: 2347026, member: 76742"] Got a Kimber Light Hunter in 6.5 Creed three years ago. The major problem I had with the rifle was the weapon cannot be loaded as a single feed. That's because the extractor will not spring around the base of the round and the bolt will not close. All rounds MUST be fed from the magazine. That way the extractor will pick up the base of the round. This was another problem for me. Trying to load Hornady 143 ELD-X with the bullet seated .010' off the lands, the round was too long to fit the magazine. Hornady shoots like crap with a long jump so I have to use Berger 140's which will shoot 1/2 MOA but just try getting those bullets anymore. Frustrating. Looking to see if an M16 extractor can be fitted to the bolt so I can load rounds individually and not depend on rounds fed from the magazine. [/QUOTE]
