Does anyone here have one? Do they have a ramped barrel? If you have one, how do you like it. I have been set upon by the desire to have one of these.

Slim Chance:  I think I read an article in one of the recent gun rags about that particular handgun and do not recall reading that it had a ramped barrel.  That is usually reserved for the folk who consistently shoot the real heavy loads in that caliber.  I recall it was a nice looking piece and Kimber has a real good reputation for reliability.  However, I'm not so sure I was absolutely sold on the groups it got with the ammo it was shooting - I think it was either factory or hot loaded Cor-Bon stuff, neither of which gave great accuracy.  You can prolly do better it you handload.  HTH.  Mikey.
