The Kimber Model 84M™ is the first ultra-lightweight production rifle that combines classic design, hand finishing and the advantages of a Mauser claw extractor for true controlled round feeding and extraction. Accuracy is ensured by the match grade barrel, chamber and trigger, along with pillar bedding on all models and glass bedding on rifles in big game calibers.

The Model 84M action was designed with minimal dimensions to accept the .308 Win. family of cartridges. No compromise was considered. Most production rifles simply shorten their bulky, full-size actions to accommodate these shorter cartridges, and their rifles end up weighing the same as a magnum. Worse, many do the only other thing they can to save weight: shorten the barrel below optimal length. That takes the rifle out of balance and reduces velocity.

The Kimber Model 84M Montana weighs just over 5 pounds, and the Model 84M Classic, Classic Stainless, Classic Select Grade and SuperAmerica weigh about 8 ounces more. Heavier rifles in varmint calibers are also available. Like all Kimber pistols and rifles, the Model 84M is built entirely inside the Kimber factory right here in America.
