I found a used used Cooper this weekend, I`m not sure of the model # but it has the synthetic Phoenix stock and I believe its a M22. Chambering is 6x45 (6/223). Redding dies are in the deal for ~$900. no rings or bases.
I didn`t have time to look it over much but it appeared to be in nice shape.
Is this a decent price?
I`m not worried about the chambering, I reload and at one time actually thought re barrelinging a rifle I had to this cartridge for paper punching.

Any thoughts or comments?

With that chambering it would be a M21....and I'd snap it up.

I have a M21 that used to be a 6/223, and thought the twist was slower than I liked....it's now a Pacnor barreled .17FB.....

Thamks, that is pretty much how was feeling when I 1st saw it.
I`m going back to take a better look at it this afternoon. I need another rifle like a hole in the head according to the home finance officer but... :twisted:
I`ll post back if I decide to buy.

Sounds like a deal to me.

I'd just plug one of the existing holes to make room for a new one.

If you don't pick it up let us know where it is. That is a heck of a buy.

Put a down payment on it this the morning. The finance chief was a bit toughter then usual this time but I still have all the skin on my knees :D
