Anyone have one yet? They sound interesting with the octagonal barrel and whatnot. Just interested in feedback from those that have seen/handled/shot one. | ||

I have Coopers in the Classic, Varminter, Montana Varminter, Varmint Extreme and Jackson Game. At present the Western Classic is above my pay grade. I will say that the Coopers have become some of my fav's. Excellent fit, finish and accuracy. IMHO, a conscientiously pre-enjoyed Cooper purchased at +/- 60% of retail is one of the best values out there. Western Classics are classic, and can be had across the rimfire and centerfire spectrum. IIRC, the model 57 is a rimfire. The model 21,22,38, 52,54 and model 56 are centerfires, and can be had from 17 through 338 cal in the western classic. http://www.cooperfirearms.com/...es.php?rifle_name=wc GWB | |||

Dang you're hide. I've been trying to resist a 57m Classic in 17HMR for several weeks now. You may have pushed me over the edge with this thread. My latest addition, picked up a couple months ago. Cooper Model 22, Varmint Extreme, 22-250 Remington Due to recent surgery I've not been to the range to shoot it yet. I'm going in the AM. Best GWB | |||

I have a M52 JGR in 6.5-284 Norma. I am very pleased with it. A Western Classic would be bliss in any configuration. That one above is a dandy. For an upgraded rifle the M57 is probably a good choice. A rifle you likley won't take on a hard core hunt yet use around the yard regularly. | |||

Gedub, and others, I have edited my post to reflect my actual intent--the Model 52 in the Western Classic (octagon barrel configuration! Geez my typing skills are poor when it comes to the numbers!! I too have several coopers, starting at 17 HMR, which I love! I also have several centerfires, and think I would really like the blend between the modern bolt design, and the classic octagon barrel and perhaps the Jackson Game stock configuration......been thinking of my Christmas to me item | |||

The last time I was in Chuck's he had 2 but that was a year ago so I'd call before the drive to Buckhead. http://www.chucksfirearms.com/ | |||

One thing, if you buy it for yourself and don't like it, you definitely know who to blame. Here is a model 52, Jackson game with a 26" fluted stainless barrel option. The Jackson Game is my favorite stock style followed by the Classic, then the varminter. Best GWB | |||

Blatant gun porn...and in a darn fine caliber to boot. You should be ashamed posting link like that! I've never looked much a Cooper rifles before. They are indeed pretty. 30+ years experience tells me that perfection hit at .264. Others are adequate but anything before or after is wishful thinking. | |||

Geedub, nice pics. Is that a Leica scope on that Jackson Game/Stainless rig? I've been curious about their scopes for a while, I have and love their BRF Binoculars. I've got several Jackson game stock configurations, and like them a lot--thinking it would be a cool blend of modern and classic with that stock and the Octagonal barrel..... Tom, will call Chucks in the AM! | |||
