Many many years ago I bought a SFS Stingray custom T (basically a SFS tuned Stingray in a CS600 Tyrolean stock) from TAL and the guy in there at the time (he left many years ago) knew his rifles, I always found them a bit dippy after he left but I haven't been in there since I left my last job (about 4 years ago) and not working in that area anymore, I might have to have a trip down soon as it's not that far but they seemed to be full of Chinese rifles and anything decent was over priced.

Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in
Dealers do make mistakes, not so long ago I rang my local dealer to ask if he had any left handed springers in to which he replied yes I have A TX200 in a custom left hand stock in .177 .
Shot ! over to find it was a TX200 SR with a jammed sledge, dealer or his staff hadn't realised it was an SR but honoured the price.

Bad luck OP, but other opportunities will come your way.
Reminds me when I drove from London down to Avalon guns to buy a well priced rapid mk2, it was to be my first PCP and I agreed to buy it and told them I would come and collect and pay the next day. Needless to say it was sold when I arrived. I have a large collection of rifles and sporting guns now but I've never been back to that shop! I had a long drive home and learned an important lesson! Soon after that I bought an FX verminator off here for a good price.
This any good pete ???

It seems like TAL are more interested in the scuba side of the business these days...in my opinion anyway.
Remember, it is the strongest character that God gives the most challenges.
That Venom 85 was my dream German break barrel. I saw it too and tried to buy it, but it wouldn't take the payment and flagged up as unavailable. Just have to be satisfied with my standard hw85k I suppose. Was lucky to find that in vgc.
