    I was quite keen on the Kimber, but can't buy one in .308. Gun shopping is not much fun at the moment.

    I have a Kimber hunter in .308. Cut to 16" with a DPT suppressor. They do come up every so often but the 6.5 and 7mm08 do seem more common for some reason.
    I quite like it now after taking a bit of time to get used to the action (controlled round feed vs push feed of all my other rifles) and sorting out a issue with the mag.

    its like boat shopping mate, If you have the money ready before Christmas youl be shit out of luck, come winter you get choice and selection and good prices
    right now you are scraping thru the bottom of the barrel paying top dollar prices

    just be patient and what you are looking for will magically appear in front of you and just get good with your 300blk for the next month or so
