I am constantly on the lookout for a "one holer" and eureka??? I found it.That is to say by all appearances this is the gun-Two questions come to mind- a sample target accompanies each rifle to prove the gun is capable-is it reliable.The other much larger question is given the price of these guns is there a comparative performer at a lower cost.I dont want a heavy barrelled behemoth that I need a cart to haul around.Mostly for targets and varmints-was looking at .223.Anybody out there care to comment on these guns.

uper, I've got a Cooper LVT 22lr, for a grand, it's a real nice piece of work, very accurate, and workmanship is outstanding, I shoot Wolf MT and just tried some SK JAGD Standard Plus which is supposed to be the same as MT, but was much more accurate on Sunday, 14 of 20 shots in a .655" hole, at any rate, Cooper's are very nice rifles, but the test targets you see are shot at 47yds. in a test tunnel by a real person behind the trigger, and the centerfires are shot 3 times, 22lr 5 shots, with the right load you should be able to get some fine groups at 100yds, just pay attention to what they're using for a bullet, usually a Sierra in 223, and powder, usually H322, you could find a factory Rem or Win. varmint rifle that may shoot as well, my VS 223 avg. in the 6s-7s for a 25 shot aggregate, I'm sure a Cooper 223 will do better than that, actually my 22lr Cooper can shot better than my Rem 223 at 100yds.

Coopers are real good shooters. I have been to their factory and the range seems more like 35 yards. The ammo is all handloaded on site. I don't know if they are worth the money.

The only one I have had any experience with was a problem rifle. Difficulty extracting and firing, it was a 223.
