    Good job we didn't mention the HW35 with its 2 counties extra long barrel
    Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in

    I would have thought the HW85 was the equivalent break barrel of the time. Smaller bore than the HW80

    Yep, I'd say HW80 in terms of size, weight, "premium" standing in the range and the 85 for more comparable internals.

    Can't wait until you start feeling the love for the 35, Pete.

    What the Diana/Original 35? Still not the best looking rifle
