But so was the Annie 335.
Heck, so was the Webley Vulcan MK1. The Webley flagship that would be developed to the Omega.

BSA was Airsporter, and it's break barrel the Mercury.

So many not off the top tier shoot well enough. If you can get over their triggers and don't shoot beyond the farmyard. Much depends on the accuracy demanded.

I quite like shooting the BSA Buccanier. Slap a dot sight on and plink cans over.

Shooting was once done standing, and not attached to a bench, bag, and seat. Loads of Top Tier rifles are no fun shooting standing as they are heavy fat lumps. Loads of fun to be had with the "little" rifles. I have a soft spot for the BSA Cadet.
