Default Whoa Baby....17 Hornet

I just finished reading off the CC number for a brand spanking new Cooper 38 in 17 Hornet. I'm a tickled puppy. Cooper won't call it a Hornady Hornet but it's stamped 17 Hornet and Cooper confirmed it's the HH. This is not an order for some time in the future. Seller has gun-in-hand and will be in my hands shortly. Did i mention I'm tickled?

So I am a little confused. Can I or can I not order a 17 HH from Cooper. If I can, I might just be in the market for my very first spanking new Cooper, as opposed to buying the used ones. Thanks.

Wish I didn't have to use my tax return to pay off last year's Cooper!

The money I had to PAY after doing my tax return could have bought me a nice Cooper

I would sure like to see some photos when you get your hands on that gun dsandfort. Congrates buddy.

Default minor setback

Cooper is here....exactly what I expected.
My brother, the Cooper expert, told me that all of his came with Leupold bases. So I went out an got rings of various heights for Leupold. Gun has Talley bases. I've been searching around and I'm going with new Leupold bases since Talley rigs are harder to find.
Gun, ammunition and scope.....but no instant gratification. Waiting on mounts.
