re: Getting a new deer rifle/ ETA: conceal carry 1911 (pg. 5)

Quality control on the Kimber rifles are not the same as their pistols. They are known for producing inconsistent rifles. Some are .25 MOA, some are 25 MOA. I believe it stems bfrom their pencil thin barrel though. But for $800 it's worth it just to find out. If its not something that you are happy with, sell the gun for $500 and the scope to me for $301 and youll make money.

I mean I'm not knocking it by any means. They make some great rifles. But for the price they cost and with their reputation, there should be very little problems if any. For the price he is selling it at, buy it in a heartbeat. Chances are it will be one of the best store bought rifles you've shot. But I did want to throw my findings and opinion out there.

Regardless of their rifles, I will continue to buy their pistols as long as I can afford them.

I honestly don't really think it matters where one buys a gun from. It's kind of like buying a PS3 at Walmart, best buy, or newegg. They all get made the same. However, it certainly don't hurt it either.

What are the specs on the Leopuld?

I would love to setup a bench gun with turrets and fine tune my long shot though.

That's what he did with this one. He says with a competent rangefinder, it is $.


Back to the OP: I think I've decided to get another T/C and add this bad boy to the arsenal as a concealed carry piece. Behold:

Kimber 1911 "Ultra Covert II"

Well you just threw a kink into my thought process, good sir.




but

Can't go wrong with that decision. However, I prefer the "pro" size over the ultras. Not much weight savings with the ultra, it's a but smaller than the pro, but has a higher ftf percentage.

I know that a CCW does not have to shoot 10,000 rounds without jamming but I have yet to shoot an ultra that I would be comfortable carrying. It could have been the two guns or it could have been the ammo. But the only pro size I've shot was on par with my full size. All were Kimbers.

Way too plain-not enough stuff on that rifle.

I have the kimber ultra carry II
this was at 50 yards last week. A few of these shots were from my F&N 5.7 I didnt think I had any chance hitting it but i got lucky this was sitting elbows on the bench not standing. I am shocked how accurate that thing is.
