    Great idea from kimber to bring the cost down a bit. Bet in the us they are competing with the T3.
    Are they going to do a long action?

    Bringing cost down... It is a bit like a Ferrari with steel wheels instead of mag wheels.

    It seems a bit too "ruger American/savage axis" to me for a rifle that cost what it does

    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
