[QUOTE="dmj, post: 1923539, member: 73479"] I do have a couple of the cooper Backcountry rifles. One is a 280ai, the other is a 300wm. The 280 has been a little finicky on finding a bullet that it would shoot well. Was going to try some hammer bullets but have some 175 eld-x so decided to try them. Found a load that shot well under 1/2 inch. Haven't run it through the chronograph, but it does shoot well. The 300 seems to shoot everything I've tried so far quiet well. Hope it continues to do well as hopefully it will be my light pack rifle. Do like both rifles but at least to me they are a little on the more expensive side. Not necessarily compared to what some of the guys and gals on here shoot. Unfortunately this is not a cheap sport. There is always something new to want rifles, scopes, rangefinder, binoculars, reloading gear and supplies. Good luck [/QUOTE]
