I have got an almost minter in .22, fitted with a classic old Japanese 3-9x40 scope. Going to try for £200 at the Kempton Park Show next month. Will put pics on today to show you condition.

God loves a trier.

The last '335, a .22, I bought was a very tidy Bowkett tuned one (no open sights but doing 11+ ft/bs ) for £125.

All very interesting. I had a thread here a year or so ago to ascertain the existence of the 'Magnum' but I cannot recall what this term actually designated.

I think some 335s were for the German market and therefore sub 6ft/lb.

Anyway, Baz, any idea what yours is performing at and any idea what yours is performing at duomatic? I ask because between you, it seems you have a Mk1 and a Mk2, the former also being a magnum.

It also seems that, in addition to the barrel release (Mk1 pull forward and Mk2 at an angle per Baz's photo), the Mk2 has a different rear sight which is governed by the circular screw (see Baz's photo). The Mk1 seems to have a sliding sight.

Andrew, I had to remove two coils from the spring and reform it to get the power down. The spring is very high quality steel, 30 coils at 3.2 wire diam. Now 28 coils.
The rifle is very easy to strip as the solid trigger block comes out in one piece after two cross pins removed. Be careful in re-assembling as only one pin takes the strain and the other can slide out before the action is put in the stock. The finish and fit of this rifle is very good, especially the barrel to the jaws. This all helps with accuracy and yesterday I was getting 5p groups at 20 metres at the range. The piston seal is a very hard material, does not seem to be the usual polyurethane.
