I am buying mine through MOA PERFORMANCE and Scott Alcorn and getting the run around for over 12 months now. How did you eventually get it? If you can let me know I would be greatly appreciative. Should I try to contact Coopers, or just hound Scott Alcorn? Where are you located-in NSW?.
How is your rifle-was it worth the wait?

Still waiting. contacted MOA Performance-was told the rifle has been made and sitting in Seattle with the new export company waiting to be shipped. I expect another 4-5 weeks of waiting. :wall: :wall:

Hi Mate same bull shot i got then it will have sit in customs for 4 weeks email cooper to find out when your rifle was made and about shipping you may need ser No. Or just email rifle details, thay need to get a new importer it can't be that hard you should be able to put the thing in the post to custom. I think cooper needs feedback on the shot that is going on it's not doing there rifles name any favers

Hi Ozfox
I emailed Cooper and they advised the rifle had been sent to the exporter in June and it may take another 6 months for the exporter to be sent to Australia and that this corresponds to the last contact with MOA. Yes, I agree it shouldnt take that long you would think, but ??? thanks for the advice Ozfox-I will keep you posted.

I dream of a Cooper but will have to do a Kimber.
I inquired just this week about a Cooper repeater in a 20cal and there was no plans. I was bummed.

You should look into a Howa in .204. You can get a 5 or 10 round detachable magazine for them.

Hi Redfox The only thing i didnt like with my phoenix was the stock was to low on the comb easy fixed with a bear tooth slip on comb rise kit for $35 $40 bucks. It works great, It would have been nice to pick one up in a shop to get a feel of the rifle. There where none in shops down here and you can understand there not many around with the time MOA takes
