I'm convinced that at least 90% of the complaints of poor Kimber accuracy is really due to inexperienced shooters, not bad rifles.
I don't disagree with the theory but you'd have to be a rabid chimp hyped up on 5-hour energy to shoot a capable gun to 4 inch groups at 100 yards. You might get 1/2-3/4 with an "easy" gun and 1 1/2 with a "hard" gun but 4" groups at 100 yards, that's shooting blindfolded territory. Particularly with a gun which has almost no recoil, like a 22-250.
