    But RH bolt.
    So it's for someone like me who has to shoot left eyed.
    Still low estimate.
    Maybe not after auction fees!

    Realistic...

    ...market value of about 1k bit this is an auction. Had one, loved to look at it but could never take it into the field mine was very pellet fussy.

    Broadly speaking it's a Titan underneath
    Pardon?

    Just to let you know, i made the action but not the stock, not sure who made that, Just for the record the comment on the use of titan bits, They where only used on the Spartans we made for sporting supplies we made about 20 odd of them, they used falcon not titan cylinders, valves, and quick fill, the stocks for them where made by Gary cane, Personally i never liked those rifles, they where neither one thing or another, but that's what they wanted, The rifles i make now are all made by myself.

    Shaun,

    so to check - is this action one of the earlier SS Spartans, or the later fully bespoke ISP Spartans.

    Guide line - what would a stock cost from you to revert this (back ?) to being a right hooker ?

    Cheers

    Hi Harry

    Looks like one of my own made ones. Pm me regarding the stock, as the thread will probably be pulled, might be seen as advertising!!
