Cooper Firearms Long Range Rifle

Good afternoon,

Steve from Cooper Firearms here. Wanted to give you guys a little teaser on the new Long Range Rifle that is ready for the public. We have 2 different styles the (XLR) which is our Excalibur stock style and the (JLR) Jackson Hunter.
The Excalibur is our standard sporter style stock with a spiral fluted bolt and straight fluted barrel, which will come standard all chrome moly blued. The Jackson Hunter is the Monte Carlo stock style with a rollover cheek piece and that comes with a chrome moly action and stainless steel barrel.. I will leave you with that for now. I will be back with a little more info later. Most of you should be very happy with the calibers that we have chosen.

This sounds pretty exciting, Steve!

So I just posted some pictures. This is the Jackson Hunter 300 WIN MAG in HS Presicion green and tan camo stock. It is shown with a spiral fluted bolt and bi-pod that are options. The Night force scope is not part of the package. Let me know what you think.

Weights?

Archer the rifle is coming in @ 9.6 LBS bare. The overall length of the rifle is 47.5". The magazine will accept a bullet 3.66". The length of pull is 13 3/4". Wilson Premium match grade barrel with a contour of 1.18x.750x26", with the muzzle break it is 27 1/4". 1/2" MOA guarantee.

And she's good looking. Some LR guns look like clubs but not this one.

I didn't see any specs on the trigger? My Excalibur in Mod 52 is super crisp and light.

Model 52 Long Range Rifle features:

The Model 52 Long range rifle is designed and configured for the long range shooter. The entire design reduces felt recoil for faster sight picture recovery after the first shot and the new Cooper Muzzle break funnels gases away from the rifle to aid in shot placement visibility and follow up shots.
We are offering two standard stock styles: the Excalibur, which features a sporter style HS Precision stock, spiral fluted bolt and a straight fluted barrel made from 4140 Chrome moly.
The Jackson Hunter style stock features a Monte Carlo rollover cheek piece for better eye relief return as well as a 4140 chrome moly action and stainless steel barrel. We have increased the recoil lug size (.625) to create more action stiffness upon recoil. Our Model 52 action is sitting on an aluminum bedding block as well as glass bedded for greater accuracy.
You can choose from some of the most popular and accurate calibers currently available, 6.5x284, 280AI, 7mm REM MAG, 7mm STW, 300 WIN MAG, 338 WIN MAG, 7mm RUM, 300 RUM, 338 Lapua, 26 Nosler, and 28 Nosler.

Pricing:

Model 52 LR Excalibur (MSRP) $2755.00

Model 52 LR Jackson Hunter ( MSRP) $2755.00

I like the caliber options and the trigger.

Any chance you guys might offer a stock in the future with a more verticle style grip, like an A2 style?

Anyone heard anything more on these rifles? When will they be available? They dont even seem to be on the website yet???

Hi, the rifles are shipping. I just contacted Cooper and received this email right back:

The LR guns are available now,
they have been shipping to the dealers, who placed orders, for about
one month now. We do not have them on the website yet, but would be
happy to email some pictures and technical information to anyone who
is interested.

Also, our own Long Range Editor Sam Millard just tested the LR. I have his article and it will post early next week.
