Kimber rifles

Anyone familiar Kimber rifles? I don't see many posts on them. I picked up a Kimber 84 at the gun shop the other day and thought I might need it soon. Is accuracy sacrificed due to its lightweight? It sure was pretty and felt good, but why spend +/- $800 on something that may not be a tack driver? If I buy one, it will probably be a 308, unless someone persuades me otherwise.

I have a Rem. 700 ADL, 270 that shoots really well, so I don't really need it, but that's not the point.

Any suggestions/comments on the Kimber would be appreciated. Thanks.

Swarm as an employee of a Kimber Master Dealer I have only one thing to say about their guns, DONT SHOOT ONE! Otherwise you might end up neglecting your other rifles and possibly even getting rid of them altogether.

Will a .308 8400 shoot? I dont think it will drive nails... perhaps brads would be more appropriate!
