[QUOTE="Norsky, post: 1207015, member: 13925"] I recently just put a used Cooper Model 56 7mm STW on layaway. The gun is in excellent shape and its hard to say if the previous owner had ever shot the rifle. There is only one small scratch on the bottom of the magazine. The test target is a one-holer and is dated March of 2013. I know they have discontinued the Model 56 except for special orders.I have read it was discontinued due to being over built and being on the heavy side. I am starting to have second thoughts on purchasing this rifle. For about $500 more I can have a new Model 52 which would be lighter. I plan on using this rifle for some long range hunting and target shooting. This gun weighs around 9 lbs now. I do hunt with some Kimber Montana's and Tikka T3 Lights so I know what a light rifle can be. I guess I am just looking for some opinions and thoughts from other forum members to help me make a final decision. I will only be out $25 if I back out of the layaway at this time. I would value any opinions - Thanks! [/QUOTE]
