[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 216965, member: 1521"] A cooper's a solid investment.. Just cut a check and be done with it. You'll have a standardized gun that Cooper has worked the bugs out of. This is actually just opposite of a 'custom' (that YOU have to work the bugs out of). The same could be said for something like a GA Precision in 308, but they are too heavy for real use in many areas. Such is the case with most 'customs'.. And if you put together a higher quality custom, there is no tellin how it will perform, no matter how much you spend. Coopers hold their value because they are built 'good enough', and don't have to be modified at all. The only thing to watch out for with Coopers, is twist rate. For some cartridges, they've chosen twists too slow for long range bullets. [/QUOTE]
