I'm crying right now, but I broke down and got a Swarovski 3.5-18x44 BRX for the Cooper

Well, with a rifle as nice as that it's likely not the first time tears have been shed! A lesser scope would be like putting retreads on a BMW. I'm usually not that attracted to Coopers, finding them too glossy for my tastes but that one has a great look.

I have that same rifle; am ready to upgrade from the Nikon on it now. What rings are those, Leupold PRW's?

Warne bases for a cooper? I just ordered a model 54 yesterday and I thought I was limited to leupold std or talleys. hmmmmmmm I need to do more research I suppose.

Why are you crying, can't put the bolt back in?? (just kidding) A nice rifle like that deserves an equally nice scope.
Have you had a chance to test the rifle/scope combo out yet? |

Very nice rig from top to bottom, Malazan -- scope, mounts, rifle, and chambering! It's hard to fault your choices!

I'm normally a fan of the Stainless + Synthetic, unless it happens to look like yours. It's been a while since I've seen a set up that was so sharp looking. I could definitely love that look.

I'm not sure Warne's making the Weaver-style bases for the Model 54 yet. I have some for my 21, although I'm running Talley Lightweights at this time.
Boy, it sure would be nice to see some pics of that 54 when it arrives . What style is it: Classic, Varmint, Phoenix?

Check out a Cooper Phoenix. That, too, will make one a believer in stainless/synthetic.
