[QUOTE="ramrod79, post: 1039827, member: 58107"] Good day everyone , I want to know if anyone is using their Coopers for Long range work weather it is hunting or shooting steel and what distances . I guess I really want to know what everyone thinks of using these rifles for long-range work,and the reason I ask is that I have a 280AI Excalibur 24" pipe ,and I use mine for long range work but I am thinking of upgrading to well lets say a better quality rifle or maybe just some add on features to help me out more not sure yet so thats why the questions,and I had thought of a 6.5 -284 Cooper Jackson as well for the longer barrel and better cheek rest. My Cooper shoots really well at 300 yards about 1.5" 3 shot group ,and then when I run the rifle from 500 - 1000yards I get MOA with the rifle yesterday I was out, and was shooting a 5" 3 shot group at 600yards of my bipod lying in the snow (I know many other rifles shoot better than this at this distance) . My gun does not wear a muzzle break ,and I was thinking of getting one installed to see if this will help shrink up my groups some( any thoughts on this) although for my thinking a 9-10"group at 1000yards is really not that bad so let me know if there are any other Cooper shooters using there outfits for LR work ,and your results .
