I have been using the Montana now for maybe 6 years on sheep trips and I cant believe how hardy the stock is, finish remains essentially the same as new. I thought during one horse wreck that the stock would be snapped in half or the barrel bent when I plucked up the courage to remove it from the scabbard all was in order?? No complaints about Kimber from this owner. D.H.
Own a 30-06 and it shoots very well . Do not use it much , seems to pretty to take out hunting , only used it at the range to break the barrel in. Haven't decided to keep it or sell it , they are very nice to shoot.
