It sounds like OEH summed it up pretty good. All I can add is that you could get a really nice Cooper or have a very nice rifle custom built for $4,000. You could get some really nice wood on a Cooper and some really nice custom stock features for that price. So I would think twice before I spent that much on the Nosler. However our Cabela's is extremely high priced. You might be able to buy that rifle for a lot less somewhere else?? Tom.
