I bought my Excels a while back and am lucky enough to have them v Mach’d andctrigger upgraded (which requires a bit of stock letting in trigger area)
There are two stock patterns
The thin flat one - this is a bit low and works well set up with a one piece mount and 50mm objective lends scope (honest) for average size Adult. LOP is short but OK unless tall
The heavier Ambi cheek piece stock, if fitted with adjustable but pad becomes full size adult rifle
I used to use them as shoot from 4x4 rifle for close up (squirrels on drive of estate on way in etc)
I did in the end end up using BSA Ultra instead ...
I now use as a perfect ‘garden gun’ but would have no probs using as a main hunting rifle
Best pellets are usually FTT 5.53 (sometimes 5.54) or RWS - the classic SDome SPoint SHPoint. These old Webleys usually shoot all of those so are very versatile as you can match pellets to quarry (which does make a difference)
