Sold Kimber Mountain Ascent

[wyoduster]

As the title says I'm looking for a Kimber Mountain Ascent. 6.5 creedmoor might consider a 280ai .. I've looked at new ones but before pulling the trigger Thought I'd ask around see if there was a used one sitting somewhere wanting a new home.

As long as @wyoduster doesn’t object, I’ll jump on this thread with a similar, but not competing, request. I’m looking for a Mountain Ascent in .300WSM.

Cheaper than I’ve seen elsewhere if you can’t find one on here.

Yes that is reasonable.. I had one in my hand yesterday "new"($1949.) but thought I'd see if I could find preowned and save a few bucks and maybe get extras... Theres always someone that wants a different gun..Me included.

Keep searching, I got my mountain ascent 300 win mag here on rokslide a year ago for 1100.00. I about broke my wrist reaching for my wallet.

They are great guns. Own one in a 270wsm and just sold one in a 300wsm. $1,100 for the WM was a steal!

Wouldn’t overlook a montana either. You can get the bolt knob aftermarket and then the only thing you’re really missing is the fluted bolt and the small flutes on the barrel.

Karl Kampfled does flute Kimber bolts.

Yep, wife's is 4lbs+ naked--tackdriver. Worth considering if the Ascent doesn't materialize.

Are you talking about the Hunter model?

It looks like they stopped making the Montana….how dumb of them.

Gunbroker is your friend. Got my Mountain Ascent years ago there in .280AI. Do not overlook that caliber, particularly if you are a handloader. You can duplicate 7mm mag with less powder and kick. Also nabbed a long out of production Montana in .338 Win Mag (NIB) for about a grand. If you're willing to live with just a bit more weight, the Montana can be a bargain purchase.

Get a Murphy Precision Titanium Picatinny rail and GTG.

As they say....all good things must come to an end. Now the hipsters will discover them and they'll shoot up to $5k.

Really hope this isn’t the case as I still need to eventually add a 308 and 7mm-08 to the stable.

I should have bought more of them. I wouldn’t mind having one in 6.5.

Still looking ...

None out there ?
