My first brand new rifle was a Mk1 .22 Meteor and I learned to hunt using it. I still take it out when going for a walk round the fields occasionally and still take the odd rabbit with it. Mine is doing just under 11fpe with standard components and is still accurate. Milbro Selects work well.

The Meteor is not really designed for long-range target work as it doesn't have a great trigger and is too light to be stable enough at long range. It was designed to be a plinker and short/medium range hunting gun. It is very good for this...
