When most hunters think about rifles from Kimber, the first thing that comes to mind is usually price, which is typically several hundred dollars above a grand. But the latest rifle from Kimber, the Model 84M Hunter, isn't a typical offering from the company. The Hunter has an MSRP of less than $900—it's the least expensive rifle in Kimber's line-up. Now if that doesn't get your attention, perhaps this will: The Hunter has the same controlled-round-feed, stainless steel 84M action and match-grade barrel that go on Kimber's other rifles like the Montana and Adirondack—but you'll save $500 to $800 with the Hunter.

Hardware Review: Browning BAR MK 4 Hunter

First, the Browning Automatic Rifle addressed in this article is not the renowned 1918 BAR of military fame. I’ve actually seen an American Rifleman editor hunt hogs with a reproduction 1918 BAR. While it was a spectacle to behold, it’s probably not the optimal choice for the deer woods, but hey, who am I to judge? The Browning BAR we’re talking about in this article is the iconic hunting rifle.
