So I want a lightweight rifle, I think I want a Kimber mountain ascent or really a Subalpine. I plan to use it for whitetail, elk, and hopefully in the not to distant future moose and hopefully brown bear.
I would prefer a custom like Cooper or one a local guy could build me, but I think a Kimber would be work.
I thought I wanted a 280 AI, but if I was to get 1 gun to do anything I know a 300 WM would work.
Question I have is, is the Kimber solid enough for 300 WM. I've looked at them in 6.5 and 257 and they are definitely trimmed down, which I like but worry about a 300 WM being a little too much for that lightweight action.
I know for 90% of the type of hunting I'll do a 280 is great, but I would really like to get 1 gun and stick with it.
Does anyone have a Kimber in 300 WM and how do You feel about it?
