Your Right it is a Norman Clark Rifle,and if my info is correct he is at Rugby ,Warks,There is around £2800 give or take a few pennies and another £1200 in the scope.Apparently some people are struggling to get a .204 on their licence anybody out there had this problem.

Frank why do you say they are all boom and no poke dont you rate them .

Had one for 6 months, only grouped with 32 grain v.max. Found the 32 grain only panetrated the fox sometimes. The 40 grain v.max, was usless, did not group at all in my Ruger M77 Mk II.

They all have a 1 in 12 twist and most dont like the 40s.

On the other hand, if you work VERY hard and reload for this caliber, you might make something of it, personally, i got a .223 instead, much less hassell and dead easy to please, cheap as chips, accurate, ect, ect. :rolleyes:

Frankly I would like to see proof of a .204 32g bouncing off a fox as they produce a larger hole in checker plate than a 55Gr 22-250 never mind a .223 and the gun in the start of this thread will produce a true 1/4" group at 100yards

when you find a fox made of checker plate let me know, i know a man with a proper gun who can sort that out for you :lol::lol:
