You'd be hard-pressed to find a Cooper .22 for <$1200 bucks. I know it's not a bolt action, but, if I were spending a grand + on a .22, I'd strongly consider a Kidd 10/22 http://www.coolguyguns.com/RIFLES_c_10.html
I used to think a gun HAD to be a bolt action to be super accurate.
I was wrong.
Slaves get what they need. Free men get what they want.
