Nice. Was thinking I wanted a Cooper the other day... then realized I'd be pissed if I scratched or dinged it up. Yours looks sharp!

Congrats. Is that one of the single shots or a model 54?
Haven't worked up a load for 22-250 in several years, and the last one was with 60gr partitons using Varget.

Mainstream news might be fun to watch

I shoot TAC and Proj No 22444 55gr Barnes to hunt with from my
700 w/a 26 in bbl.. It chronograps 3810fps in Tarpley..and I get
touching hole groups..and DRT kills with it..It got to where it
wasn't much fun to carry because I seemed to always be cleaning an animal, instead of drinking beer with the guys..I finally quit
putting it in the truck, and don't load what I carry unless the freezer is getting empty..but the Barnes will whack all of them,
if you clean the bore properly..DD

Nice
My dad'a old Sako has a 1/14 barrel
He ran 63g Sierra SPs for ever in it
I worked up some new loads for it a few years ago and ran a max charge of Varget

I've had great luck with 38.0 grains of H380 behind the 55gr bullet of your choice. This is the load this powder was named for...so it's a proven choice.
Life's too short to share it with a crappy knife!

Try 36.5gr of IMR-4064 with 55gr Hornady V-Max and seat 'em long.
