Some of the attributes of the Kimber I like......uses a M70 based action, has very clean lines,matte blue finish, good trigger,nice stock design and has a 24 inch barrel which can squeeze a little more out of the 270 win over the 22" tube the Browning offers.

The Brownings are nice rifles too, I have an older A- Bolt Micro Medallion but when compared with the8400 I would take the Kimber, which by the way I own also.
