Here's what I can tell you based on owning a Cooper 52 Classic .30-06 for a year now. Esthetically it is very nice. The finish of the stock is pleasing as is the grain. The action is very smooth as well.

It is longer and heavier than the average bolt action but not unusually so. It is simply a 24" barreled rifle that is 8.5lbs scoped with a Leupold 3.5-10x40 in Talley Lightweights. For me this is fine. I don't mind the weight and it is very nice to shoot.

As for accuracy, when shooting I can say that mine is in fact a 1/2" rifle at 100 yards with 180 grain Nosler Partitions. I really can't see what more I would want out of a good rifle. I even like that safety that others seem to dislike.
