[QUOTE="el matador, post: 1134299, member: 12193"] I think the reason you don't see a lot of Kimbers being built is because they're expensive to begin with and there aren't a lot of donor actions out there. They shoot fairly well from the factory with the light weight barrels so I don't doubt they'd shoot well with a heavier match grade barrel. Kimber has really crappy customer service but they do build a pretty nice rifle. I wouldn't hesitate to build on one if the price was right for a donor. When bedding I like to bed the tang area, all around the recoil lug, and the chamber portion of the barrel. I would not bed the entire barrel. Good luck and keep us posted. [/QUOTE]
