my Cooper is still shooting pretty decent groups. Getting ready for my upcoming pd trip, I've been loading and shooting quite a bit. This morning I shot a 3 shot group of .351 at 200 yds. Last week, I shot a group of 2.499 at 500 yds. Hopefully, it will perform just as good when I make it to Montana.

Reportedly, Cooper will replace the barrel for the initial registered owner if the accuracy falls below its accuracy guaranty. That is a wonderful guaranty, that is worth at least $500, and perhaps more.

Keith: If that Cooper is shooting that well at home, the dogs are in for a very bad day when you get to Montana. When you first get set up, put up a target at 100 yds just to verify POI after the trip. You'll also have that last bit of confidence in the rifle/scope system to give you that added "edge". If any minor tweaking is needed, best to do it then before any spendy handloads are sent downrange at Skippy and his pals only to dig up dirt.

Have a great trip, and don't even go home if you forget your camera! :lol:
