    Mint then £300; excellent £200.
    Best in .22 as they make a very good farmyard rifle. That scope mount distracted from what should have been a real good looker; which is a shame as the stock and the rest are really good.
    They weren't made in that great numbers so pretty scarce. Grab good examples while you can.

    Thumbs up

    The middle one of these is a Challenger, It's quite nice, I paid (I think!) £180 a few years ago, It had just had a £60 service with new parts at Arron Wheelers, Shoots great

    Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in

    Great guns. I picked one up once from what must be one of the few true old style junk shops left. A basic tune an polish and it became one of the best farmyard guns I've ever had. My cousin still has it on his farm and uses it regularly.
