Alex when you say to take .020 off of the model 38 are you referring to the bolt face?
Thanks Dave |

Alex I remember the articles about the "new" model 38 in SCN, there were even some comparative photos of the old & new model 38 bolt and the model 21.......Kiwi |

Kiwi's right on.....
... NOT THE BOLT!
In the older 38s there was a spring about an inch back under the bolt that popped up and flipped the case our. On the new ones, there is a small ejecter lever that does the same thing. Trouble is that the lever is too wide (front to back) and to allow the plastic tipped unfired loads to eject, you have to remove the lever from the action and remove the 20 thou from the front.

Alex, or anyone, for that matter, do you know if the model 38s that were factory chambered for the 221 Fireball family were ever also offered in left hand rifles? Thanks, Danny

I have never purchased a new Cooper, well except for a R/H model 21 action, and I first started looking in 2005 for a L/H model 38, it took 6 years to find a used L/H model 38 for sale, and that was in a rimmed cartridge. But then I am restricted to places like Gunbroker and other websites. During that time (2005 - 20011) I saw a few L/H model 21's for sale as well as a couple of model 22's, and one model 57M. Usually when I saw one another one or two would pop up within a month or so for sale. I have bought a 22 Montana Varminter, 21 VE, 21 Classic, 38 Jackson Varminter and a 57M Classic all used............Kiwi |

Yes, I was primarily looking used, maybe new, but received by one of the Cooper sellers that takes photos. of the rifles and posts them online. I don't want to order and find I paid that much to get something really plain for wood. I bought a LH 38 Montana Varminter (22 Hornet) a little over a year ago (used) and am looking to buy similar in a used 21. I have seen them in the past, of course, when I didn't want to buy one. I know it is just a matter of time. I will have to keep looking. Danny
