    Bit of eye candy for you target guys

    Finally got to own a 22 LR Kimber All American Match rifle, one of only 450 made. Used to be owned by the late Malcolm Cooper's wife Sara but spent most of it's life locked away in a cabinet at Accuracy International's workshop. I believe Malcolm brought it over from the States himself on one of his numerous business trips with A.I. Superbly accurate, 10 rnds in to 0.3" at 50 yards at the factory or rejected. Has an air guaged barrel, not sure exactly what this is but must have something to do with checking bore dimensions minutely. Just thought I'd share with you.

    It is long but back in it's day Kimber designed the gun with that scope in mind, the Redfiled 3200. Great scope for 22 benchrest, fine crosshair with a dot. There is a dovetail on the reciever for a modern type scope.

    Not shot it yet Norm. I'll use it for a bit fun, nothing serious as I doubt it could compete with a modern Anschutz, least not with me behind the butt.
