Oh, so people do use them <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:-->

I'd agree with all of the comments expressed here. Mine's a karbine and seems well put together and very nice to use. On the price front, I got a thumbhole stocked karbine in .22 at the Bisley show earlier this year for 795 quid but would have thought harder if it was full price.

Thanks for all your feedback. <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:-->
