    The serial number is 45379, possibly late 90's? Anyway thanks for checking.

    It's definitely got a spring, you can see it through the cocking slot. Not one of those awful square-section ones either!

    Venom would finish their mods with a brass insert, not sure about shrouded barrels though.

    Even Webley's figures for the Tracker wouldn't put this rifle at full power, so what you have is a well tuned, bull barrelled or should that be, shrouded barrel tracker with a custom stock, who made it is another question though ?

    There was a Bull barrelled Tracker featured in a Airgun World mag back in the 90's, this wasn't the one though as I think that was .25 cal.

    Hi Pete, thanks for the reply, you must've posted this wile I was replying to the last one! Yes it certainly does look striking. As mentioned, these "style" of rifles aren't really my cup of tea, it was the fact that someone had bothered doing it to a Tracker that made it interesting. I've never seen a Tracker customised to this level before and it must have been someones pride and joy at one time.

    Yes I own several Trackers and 10 ft/lb is about where I find their limit is, though I've never really tried to "tune" one.

    Venom shroud and a early Gray Cane Stock. Interesting combo and very nice I must say. I have a friend who's tracker is running at 11.4 in .22 and it's standard so must be a goodun!. Mach 1.5
