Baldrick Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 I'd be hugely surprised if you can find one. I did a similar search for the same rifle, before I bought a T3, on the basis that the 595 is reputedly of better quality than the T3. If you can't find one listed in the usual ads in Gun Mart, I doubt you'll have much luck. Does it have to be new? My local RFD has a second-hand one in .243.

labrador Posted December 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 (edited) it would depend how many shots it had had through it as i am looking for a day to day stalking and foxing rifle and it needs to last a long time. baldrick who is your local rfd lab.

Baldrick Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 Alan Walker at Eastern Sporting (Chelmsford). It's the 595 listed on Gun Trader. Walker is a very sound fellow, worked for Browning Winchester for 15 years. Give him a bell if it's of interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisv Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 There's a used one listed on the York Guns website. I think Baldrick is right, I haven't seen new ones advertised for ages, having shot Fister's 695, I'd also have looked at them instead of my T3, not that I'm unhappy with it though!

Mungler Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 Alan's a top fella and gets my vote (and money). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moses Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 Buy S/H one, as long as the action is sound you could have a new barrel fitted for reasonable money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
