Hi Gents,

Thanks for that great information. It makes sense to me that BSA would not want to go the the trouble/expense of offering a calibre they would have to completely refit for, so I wondered if standard mags would fit. Hopefully this is the case and I will check it out once it gets there.

I'm still on the lookout for 'any' spare mags though, although I'm sure hen's teeth come to mind!

Also if anyone knows of any newly manufactured 8x50R drop me a line as I certainly will be looking at shooting this rifle.

Cheers, Roy.
