hi, anyone have any experience with the kimber 8400 advanced tactical rifle, chambered in 308? im in the market for a semi custom, and was interested in this. any feedback would be greatly appreciated
 
I really like mine, action is great. My only gripe is that the factory bedding job is terrible, once I rebedded it shot alot better. I first worked up a load for 155 scenars but ive decided to switch to 185 bergers so im in load development mode again.
 
with the 1-12 twist do you feel it can stabilize the heavier bullets? as i have alot of 175 smks
 
A 1/12 should have no problem with 175 smk, I havent got to shoot the 185 yet but according to Brian litz bullet profile on them and bergers recommendation of 1/12 or faster I would say they will be fine
