Every time I pop back in here there is always a Cooper thread and I am always happy to show my couple of sticks off. One is probably not what you would expect to see in a Coop but I love it. I have been eyeballing a new one lately in 6.5X284 but we'll see. I have a couple other guns that are in que ...

Dowpet, I have a Savage model 12 LRPV - it handles well, looks nice and has a fantastic trigger. It is NOT a light rifle however - especially by the time you have topped it off with a quality scope. I use it for shooting from a bench, car bonnet or similar. It is not really a walk around rifle. Fre...

Sorry for the OT but drumie those T3 lites are nice little guns aren't they. I have a T3 lite stainless in 25-06 and it shoots very well, wouldn't hesitate to buy another.

Did someone say Cooper? Sorry couldn't resist. Bolt on my model 38 is slightly tight, spiral fluted bolt on the 52 is smooth as glass.

my next one will be either a .17AH or another .204 to add to my collection of .204's. Which right now oddly enough does not contain a Cooper. I like the Olive Drab green one they have at Hendershots strangely enough. Hopefully it doesn't sell for awhile and they will put it on clearance...... Then i...

:banana: :w00t: Sweet! :wtg: Now if I can just resist the "Need" for a second Cooper! :eek: Gary Good luck with that. This is my second and I want another already. Here is my first.... .17 fireball http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c110/tbarringhaus/_DSC0177.jpg http://i26.photobucket.com...

to close out this thread, I got my gun a little while back and didn't post a pic on this thread. So here it is; Still haven't shot it but I will soon if I can find some time. http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c110/tbarringhaus/Cooper52024.jpg http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c110/tbarringhaus/Coope...

:lol: Sweet......Big_Bullseye!! Real nice.Fluted bolt and barrel. With scope.......what does she weigh in at? What barrel length did you settle on? Later Ray P 8.25lbs not a lightweight but not a pig either. I have a couple lightweights already. Custom Rem KS mountain rifle in 30-06 and a Tikka T3 ...

Need to weigh her.

After a long two or three month wait my new rifle finally showed up today. In early 2008 after I started reloading I read a post on the 24 hour campfire forums talking about a rifle caliber that was referred to as "the perfect 7". So happens that I started reloading that year and I got the...

I'll keep both - my LRPV and my Cooper(s).

Looks like Warne makes a weaver style base for Coopers as well. FYI.

I may swap out the Leupy's for a Talley set up and see how I like it. I just got word from First Stop that my gun should ship to them by the first week of May. Therefore I should have it in hand by mid May. Can't wait to get this nice Swarovski mounted and the gun broke in.... I have already loaded ...

BB, my Cooper came with the Leupold bases and they work fine so I'm wondering why you are looking for an alternative? (of course I'm a Leupold fan anyway) Just wondering :chin: Gary Well I have several guns with Leupold bases and rings and have no major issues with them. However I just mounted a Ze...

I would agree with Hondacr21 in that you will have great luck with a Sabre Defence 204. I have a Sabre Defence SPR 5.56 complete gun that I paid $2000 for new and it was worth every penny. They really make nice stuff for sure. There are alot of AR's out there that are far better than DPMS or Remingt...
