I haven't handled the kimber but I have handled the Ruger and the savage, they are a big step below tikka and howa in fit and finish and the factory plastic stocks sucks compared to a tikka or x bolt stock. Im betting the kimber is more at tikka level than ruger or savage.
Price wise it competes with the x bolt and A7 synthetics, but if gregs weights are correct is a pound lighter. If the fit and finish is good and they are as light as claimed, then I think its a good addition to the market
