I think I'm going to ask my wife for a Cooper for a "Christmas rifle" this year (a tradition in our home :-). The Cooper Clasic M22 single shot is available in several interesting calibers. In addition to the 257 Roberts, they also offer the 25-06, and Ackley Improved versions of both. My collection of loading manuals indicates that with the 25-06 I can duplicate low-end 257 Roberts loads with No. 4895, and exceed high-end Roberts loads with No. 4350, and the same weight bullets. So, now I'm wondering if the 25-06 isn't the best of both worlds?

Take are, Tom
