Shooting 140gr AB and 160gr Partitions well, makes this one heck of a rifle.

How many rounds down the tube and weight please?
Posted By: Bill_N Re: Cooper M52 Excalibur 280AI - 10/05/20
Approximately 120 since I bought it in 2010. I followed the barrel break in process and have only shot Nosler factory ammo. A typical 100 yard 3 shot group with 140 AB's is 1/2" or less. I've never weighed it but Cooper lists the weight at 7 3/4 lbs which seems about right.

The green /black spatter was a limited run when I bought the gun but is now a standard color. I didn't like the black/red which was the standard color at the time.

Thank you. Nice rifle.
Mine weighs 7lb 5oz with Talleylightweights

Very tempting. A guy could probably sell off two or three lesser rifles to buy this one, which is exactly what I am thinking about doing.😁

After looking through my ammo it turns out that total rounds fired are 70-80. I will include 3 boxes of Nosler once fired brass with the rifle.

Nice snag, Legionnaire.
I wish I could have justified it. I like the rifle and the cartridge.

Just picked it up. Beautiful rifle. Looking forward to seeing what I can do with it.

Y'all had your chance! grin
