I was at the Calgary gun show today and bought a new Cooper jackson hunter in .280 AI. This is the first brand new rifle i have ever bought( not counting the 10/22 I just bought).Although I've owned many rifles they have all been mildly used so this was a big day for me.I always wanted a Cooper since i read about them in a column written by G. Sitton years ago. Never thought I could afford one but thanks to a gracious layaway plan i bit the bullet today. Should have it home by July and ready to go for the fall.Really wanted the wood stock but i could not bear to scratch such a nice piece of woodand i guarantee this gun will get used. I opted for the synthetic stock with a Stainless barrel.
Super pumped right now!
