The last bullet Cooper endorsed may well have been a concoction cooked up by him and custom gun plumber name of Lauck. A outfit called D&L bullets carries this projectile, a 200 gr sharp shouldered, RN. Jim Watson referred to this type of design in an earlier post, calling it the "Adams Bullet" I believe. If one searches "D&L bullets, Cooper .45 acp bullet", you should encounter their web page with pics and a good write-up. I think Hornady had introduced and discontinued their 230 gr truncated FP before the D&L became a commercial reality.

We might all still be shooting one handed if Cooper and his associates had not promoted the "modern technique". His color coded levels of awareness are still taught widely. Like it or lump it, the scout rifle still survives as well.
