Cooper 57M Western Classic

Post by dddrees » Sat Jun 15, 2019 8:20 pm

I really got lucky with this one. I had been trying to figure out for the longest time exactly which 22 Bolt Gun to get. Just as I was getting ready to order a Cooper 57M Western Classic someone responded to a thread I created on Rimfire Central and provided a link to a seller with a number of Cooper rifles.


Perfect timing and perfect rifle as far as I am concerned. Exactly what I was looking for and all without having to wait for Cooper to build one for me.


Extra CCH Magazines, CCH Rings, and scope have been ordered. I'm a sucker for those rifles with a good looking stock.

Very nice rifle. I have read some about them but not enough to know that much. I know they are first class and pricey.

Thank you sir. It's my understanding the 57M is a copy of an Anschutz action. I don'y know a whole lot about them either but it appears they are more known for making a good looking rifle where as Anschutz is more known for making a more accurate rifle. I"ll never be a great shooter but I will always appreciate a good looking rifle that is fairly accurate.

Classic is right. Beautiful 22. I'm sure you'll be more than happy with the performance.

Thank you. I didn’t do tons of research on this particular purchase but this was one were I was banking on the first class thing. I’ve yet to see anything that gives me reason to believe differently.
