I am having a #3 brux barrel put on my 280AI Montana so that it holds a little better for me. However, while I was at my smiths getting his opinion on what contour to use and just getting his thoughts overall on the project, he noticed that the magazine length is really short! We checked it against a standard Remington and it was shorter. As I recall, most people lengthen the Remington when possible.
So, does anyone reload for a long action Kimber Montana? Especially the 280AI?
I was hoping to load 160's or at LEAST 150 TTSX. I am hoping I don't have to go to a really short bullet. Anyone have any info? In the end, my smith was ok with it, so I guess I shouldn't worry. However, it would be nice to hear what others are reliably loading in this gun. Thanks
