How about Ultimate Sporter R Laminate - which I suspect is your "US" - just add 'ed'.

@Ttfjlc has an Ultimate sporter.

I'm thinking a second hand R10, then get a custom thumbhole stock,  seen some very nice ones.

Plenty to choose from these days.

@Mice! Is correct, I own an S510R Ultimate Sporter, 2 mags supplied, decent Q-tec silencer as standard, a very impressive shot count. It isn't the lightest gun but if you intend to shoot from a hide/car/sticks then that doesn't matter.

The most impressive thing is the accuracy, I was testing my FAC air rifle at 60 yards when I thought I'd have a go with the US, first 4 pellets creating a cloverleaf on the target then I was humbled when the 2 other shots went a bit astray :rolleyes:.

Fortunately, I'm not too fussed. Yep, I had preferences but nothing was going to be a deal breaker (apart from me having to drive half way across the country) if I could find either a Weihrauch, Air Arms or BSA. If I can plonk it down on the bench, pull the trigger and occasionally hit something that'll do. I've found a nice package* that barely qualifies as used at a very good price which takes the edge off my pension outlay - not to mention some decent bits that I don't need and can sell on. With any rifle fitted with a scope I always have had to raise the comb by fair means or foul. It's lucky that the BSA wood stocks are adjustable whereas some just reserve this for the laminates.

*Which, to whom it may concern, includes an air bottle. 😀:innocent:

Have you got something then? It sounds like an R10 or Scorpion?

We await pictures.
