Trying to make up my mind to rebarrel now, before next pd trip, or try to get another trip out of my Cooper Varminter, .204. I have a little over 3000 rounds thru my Cooper, and I did have it bore scoped "before" my last trip. A lot of heat cracking in the throat, but still did a good job on the pd's. Decided to shoot some groups at 200 yds, without cleaning, to check the accuracy, and see if it would still shoot dirty. I shot a total of 26 rounds, (5 groups of 5 shots) don't know how that extra round came into play.
The group measured less than 1/2", winds were variable, and I watched my wind flag pretty close. Think I'll keep shooting it!

Still looks like a prairie dog slayer to me.

When the time comes, I'll send it back to Cooper. I'm sure there are better barrels out there, (and maybe not), but I sure can't argue with the round count and accuracy from the original barrel.
