Info

The name Kimber needs no introduction. Probably best known to S.W.A.T. readers for their superb 1911type pistols and LifeAct less-lethal protection devices, they also manufacture high-quality hunting rifl es and shotguns. Kimber is now also manufacturing precision tactical rifl es. Last January at the SHOT Show, Kimber introduced three new rifl es intended primarily for (but not restricted to) law enforcement, all chambered for the ubiquitous .308 Winchester cartridge: the Model 84M LPT (Light Police Tactical), the Tactical and the Model 8400 Advanced Tactical Rifl e (ATR). I was recently able to test the ATR, and I came away from the evaluation impressed. The Model 8400 ATR is based on Kimber’s heavy-duty 8400 action and comes with an oversized, smooth bolt handle and knob, full-length Mausertype claw extractor, and Model 70type three-position safety. Capacity is fi ve rounds. The 24-inch bull barrel has a match chamber. The barreled action is glass Hansen shooting Kimber 8400 Advanced Tactical Rifl e. bedded in a McMillan A-5 black/ gray/green marble pattern stock. The McMillan stock is adjustable for length of pull, drop at comb and drop at heel. The stock has four fl ush-fi tting sling swivels—two on the bottom and two on the left side—and one sling stud at the front of the stock for mounting a bipod. Metal parts on the ATR are fi nished in KimPro II—which is very resistant to the elements and is self-lubricating—in the popular Dark Earth color. The rifl e comes shipped in a premium Hardigg Storm hard case. Available as an option, Kimber has put together a kit for the ATR that includes a Leupold Mark 4 3.5-10X40mm LR/T scope in Dark Earth color with matching rings, torque wrench, Versa- Pod bipod, sling with QD swivels, Otis cleaning kit and sniper logbook. The Leupold scope features the illuminated Tactical Milling Reticle (TMR), which allows for precision shots in low-light conditions. It is a very good reticle for range estimation, making it a great scope from Kimber Model 840 Advanced Tactical Rifl e 58 S.W.A.T. » DECEMBER 2007 SWATMAG.COM
