Unsupervised, again. I came across a very nice Cooper today I was lusting over, in 17hmr, used. Got to talking with the gunshop owner who mentioned an unfired stablemate in the back. Well, being a gun-sucker is born every minute, I asked to see it. Out comes a new in box Cooper that he'd sold a few years back, along with 10 or so other Coopers, to a well-healed customer. The buyer just never got around to shooting this one. He and I agreed on a price and she's in my safe tonight. If it shoots anything like the test target, this should be a good one. I don't know anything about Cooper rifles but it sure seems to be well made, with a considerable amount of attention to detail, and an eye for flair, as much as can be assembled for a bolt-action rimfire. Will post a picture or two tomorrow.
