Cooper 52 who has one?
 

I have never seen one of these in the flesh. They sound fantastic and I have been reading the writeups as far as accuracy goes they seem unbeatable. I understand they make it in 338-06. I would be happy with one of these in that chambering.

I bet doubleA has one or has one on lay away. That guy's my hero!!

280

This from Coopers web site.

RE: Cooper 52 who has one?
 

I "almost" have one. It's on order, but will be a few more months. Their wait time is 6-9 months on average... could be more or less. Mine will be a 25-06. One LGS I frequent had six Coopers there for inspection that I checked out. They had a gorgeous 30-06, but I already have a Sako 75 in that so I passed. After I get it I'll then have to figure out what to scope it with. Should be fun.

BugsNbows, did you have options added on the 52 you ordered? I know there are alot of Custom classics available as I type this. Just today I looked at a 270 win and a 280 Rem in person. The 280 had somewhat dissapointing in wood quality but the 270 was simular to this one.

CC 52 25-06 AAA+





As with all Coopers, the test targets that come with them are one hole but are shot in their in house 47 yard range. The rifles are shot in their stocks/actions off of bags by a human, not some factory jig. They do offer 1/2moa accuracy guarantees with handloads of course and have little problems getting that with mine.

Yes oldelkhunter, they have just announced that the 338-06 is in their lineup as is the 280 AI I believe. Dan Pickett is the man to talk to at Cooper if you have any questions. 406-777-5228

While these rifles are not for everyone they do exhibit fine craftsmen ship, gorgeous bluing/case hardening and top notch wood from a OTC firearm, but with that said they do have a higher price tag than the norm.

I thought doubleA would have one;).

Do you know if they come with the Phoenix stock?

RE: Cooper 52 who has one?
 

I ordered the Jackson Hunter. It has the Phoenix style synthetic stock. MSRP is $1395. I absolutely love wood stocks, but I figured if it was too pretty, it would end up as a safe queen. For that $, I want to use it...often. The original order did have the wood stock (with upgrade to AAA) and a skeleton grip cap, but I switched it out to the Jackson Hunter. Guess the practical side won out over the beauty side.

Nice stick, DoubleA!

RE: Cooper 52 who has one?
 

Ok forgive me for being stupid on this but how do these guns compare to say the Kimbers? The one pictured is a gorgeous piece!

RE: Cooper 52 who has one?
 

Kimbers aren't even in the same ball park, probably not even the same sport. ;)
