Re: Neck turning
So a Bushing bump neck die is what I need ? I'm using a FL sizer die adjusted to cam over on the shell holder.

Re: scope mounts for new cooper
Hey Gary. I picked up the rifle about a year ago. Well worth the wait. ( It took a year. ) It's the best shooting rifle that I own, either target shooting or thinning the herd. It gets the job done and looks good doing it. The target pic is 5 @ 100 yards. http://i988.photobucket.com/albums/af1/J-Rat...

That is the way those of us with OCD roll. !!! ( clutter makes me crazy ) This rifle shoots better than any others that I own. J-Rat Five @ 100 y...

The Cooper MTV .204R is in my hands.
I ordered my cooper 07/11/12. over a year later I picked it up today. It was worth the wait. I had never seen or held a cooper rifle before, only saw pictures. ( Thanks RIO ) This rifle is my retirement present that I bought for myself. All I can say is Cooper Arms builds some very very nice rifles....

small rifle primer ?
I have a cooper mtv .204 on order. It should be here in a month or two. I have been able to purchase 1000 7 1/2 bench rest primers. I already had a good stock of Winchester WSR primers. When the 7 1/2's are gone,are the WSR GTG in the cooper ?
Thanks
