Early birthday present
« on: July 31, 2015, 03:07:42 PM »
Just picked myself up an early birthday present. Cooper Excaliber model 52 in 6.5x.284  :IBCOOL:. Topped with a 6.5x20x50  Leupold mark 4. Previous owner added a Vais  brake. Also got 100 rounds of brass, powder and some 140gr Bergers with it.  Wish it was cooler so I could go shoot it. I've actually already shot it out to 1200yrds when the previous owner had it.

Very nice set up you got, Happy Birthday to you!

I am waiting for some cooler weather also to test some loads on a few rifles. Wish the weather would change soon.

Thanks guys I've been busting my *** all summer doing side jobs to buy this thing. Fell in love with it last time we went shooting  and the owner threw out a #.

Are you getting .5moa like the guarantee? Hand loads, factory, or following the factory load info? Seems like a great buy if the .5 moa guarantee is legit

Lucky you buddy! I have wanted a 6.5-284 for years. Can't wait to get my hands on one. What did you pay if you don't mind me asking?

Handloads just under .5moa. Previous owner said out of the box with good factory ammo was right at .5moa.
