My 2nd is a 22-250 model 22 custom classic that shoots 1/2" 5 shot groups pretty regular. The brown truck just delivered another 1000 JLK 52 gr. low drag bullets. I should be seeing accuracy start to deteriorate by time this bunch is shot up. I am thinking rebarrel in 22-250 again, but with a fast twist barrel, or maybe another fast twist .243. This is my prairie dog rifle, and it seems most of my pd's are shot beyond 300 yards anymore. Those 52's get blown around pretty badly beyond 400.

I picked up a used 17 Remington Varminter that came in looking a little "more used" than had been disclosed( my side of the story), and I was sorely dissapointed with it's accuracy and a an issue with the bolt stop as well. She will arrive at the Factory tomorrow if UPS delivers as they suggest, and Mike seemed very convincing and thorough explaining what to expect after we spoke the second time after I tried to see if they could make recommendations to try and get it shooting before I resorted to letting them do a once over.
I really couldn't have been happier to see their "Leupold-like" ownership and offer to see if they can make the 2nd hand customer happier. If it were a Remington I would be still trying loads to get it to shoot as well as I had visions of the Cooper doing, and I am sure once they send it back I will consider buying another.

Allen,
I am sorry to hear about your problems with your Cooper. I had a problem with the holes on top of the receiver. It took some time, but Cooper came through and made it right. Rob was still there when I sent mine back. It is frustrating when you spend that kind of money and it isn't right. Keep us posted.
