   I have a Kimber 84M in 7mm-08 and it's great. Shoots better than I can, it's lightweight, good stock. Only things that might swing your vote are a short blind magazine. If you value a removable...

    I enjoyed my kimber for many years but what made me sell it was that I couldn't shoot it without a bipod due to the skinny stock profile. I don't like to carry a rifle with a bipod any more as they...
