More misinformation from CraigC? It's like a pattern or something...No longer in management, but still a major stock holder. Makes money off every Cooper sold.

You want to talk about misinformation? Now all the employees share the personal political beliefs of their employer? That's a slippery slope. Good thing it's total nonsense.In any case, they would have to completely replace all people involved (employees and owners) in their leftist politics before I would consider giving them a cent.
With standard factory loads? So now an off-the-shelf Winchester is "just as good" as a semi-custom rifle? I guess all those Cooper owners are just suckers, huh? You do realize that accuracy is not the only thing you're paying for, right?I have no problem shooting equivalent groups with my otherwise far superior Winchesters. So what possible reason would I have for wanting a Cooper?

That claim, as Richard Nixon would say, is no longer operative. Unfortunately for Cooper and those supporting him, the Federal Election Commission keeps good records.Nine months ago Dan Cooper (personally) made an online donation to the campaign in an effort to help defeat Hillary Clinton and in protest of American plant closures and the shipping of jobs overseas. Three months ago he made yet another donation to the McCain campaign and the RNC totaling over twice that given to Obama campaign.
Do you know that for a fact? You don't think there are liberals who own stock in other gun companies, what about them? What about all the other folks at Cooper who don't agree with whatever his politics may be? I'm sorry but this is about as silly as those who still hold that 10rd crap against Ruger, long after the old man died. Akin to throwing the baby out with the bathwater.And he still owns stock and profits from the sale of the rifles that bear his name.
How do you know that he is?I will not buy a Cooper as long as Cooper profits from the purchase.
That's already been explained. Try re-reading the thread carefully.How do you know that he is?
Are you really in the market for $2000+ semi-custom rifles or is this just empty posturing?
At the $2000 mark, it might be tough for a gunsmith to match what Cooper offers. Just a new stock may cost that much. What I was going to buy from them is a fully optioned .22LR as a be-all, end-all, to the end of time, rimfire rifle. Which was going to be closer to $4000-$5000. You make a good point and I should definitely contact my gunsmith to get an idea of what it would to build one from scratch.if you're going to spend over $2k for a rifle, i figure you may as well get a custom one. i.e. talk to a gunsmith and have him select the action, barrel, stock etc and put together exactly what you want
oh i didn't realize we were talking 22LR here.
