    Number 6 appears to be an Anschutz 335 with the push-forward barrel catch, rather than the cam-operated push-up barrel-latch. The stock design changed as well, it went from a parallel fore-arm to a deeper near the trigger guard/tapered arrangement (sexier!).

    Correct.

    Well done everyone. I thought it would be far too difficult - how wrong could I be. The amount of knowledge on here never ceases to amaze me.
    I must try harder next time.

    I could see number 11 is a Hw55 Mick but I.J has probably re-barreled it in .25

    No 11. HW55 and .177 because it is a 10M match rifle (and no - its not been re-barreled. )
