I bought a Kimber Montana in 338 Federal maybe 7 years ago. It shot 4 inch groups at best. Sent it back and they rebarrelled it in about three weeks and shipped it back. With the new barrel it's close to MOA. I picked up a Sako Grey wolf in 338 Fedral for peanuts a year later and had it stocked by MPI to my LOP 15.5 inches.

The Sako was so comfortable I did nothing with the Kimber until I decided to turn it into a Mannlicher. I had a laminate stock made and mounted NECG open sights. The barrel was cut from 22 inches to 18.5 inches. It's. Super cool little rifle but I've never actually hunted with it.

The bottom line is the first barrel was terrible but they made it right fast and that's what really counts in my book.

450-400, 9.3x74r and 7x65r.
