I understand I can not get a definitive answer, I was just hoping for suggestions as to a good starting point to begin looking/experimenting.
Cabelas alone has over 30 different types of 308 ammo and 20+ types of 300 win mag. If I buy one box of each to experiment at let's say $40, I am looking at a cost of over $2000. I am probably naive, but is everyone really spending over a $1000 per rifle to find the best ammo? Or with some good suggestions, can that field be dramatically narrowed? Thanks again for your help!
That's probably about all you'll get out of the Kimber unless you handload. They aren't known to be tackdrivers, especially the Montana.
The Browning at 1" isn't bad, you might try a couple different bullets to see what happens.
What scope, rings, bases and what type of rest are you shooting from?
