I've shot a fair number of them after the conversion. Many of the ones I test fired could throw some pretty good groups. I've also shot a fair number of the .22's we were making, plus the Daewoo guns we were distributing. Oh, and I did some of the developmental test firing for the Kimber .45.
Peace,
P.S. The actual "plant" that I managed was in Colton, OR. The main "plant", where the .22's were made, and the main Kimber office was in Clackamas. The Swedish Mauser conversions were actually done in Colton.

I have one of those converted rifles in .243 shot really well until I floated the barrel in the stock. Now it doesnt shoot for ****. Can you tell me if the kimber stock you guys put on the rifle was the one with the military contour? And if it was did you guys modifie it in anyway? I'm just trying to get mine back to were it was. And they do shoot MOA or less, mine .75" @ 100 yards. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
