Thanks gentlemen. My personal flavor would lean to the Cooper Classic. Simple plain rifle. I like the more American lines of this rifle. But must admit the JSR and LVT are both handsome rigs and would probably pull double duty in some of our local rf matches. But the JSR and LVT appear to be a bit more rifle to carry when out squirrel hunting (not that we have real squirrel hunting here in WA State.)
I have three 57M's - a Jackson Hunter, a Classic, and a LVT. The Classic is my go-to rifle about 75% of the time, I just find it more comfortable for me. As mentioned the LVT is a bit heavy for general carrying, I am not particularly fond of the higher cheekpiece on the Jackson except for off-hand shooting so it is relegated to being my small bore silhouette rifle. As mentioned if you could handle them to make up your mind it would be nice but if not grad a Classic and you will like it.
