I understand the dislike of it being turned into a shotgun from a rook rifle.
If you can't buy, find, source loaded ammunition, or if it is difficult to reload, for your rook rifle, it's a wall hanger. Useless. Yes the .22 RF probably killed off the profitability of ammunition makers making rook rifle cartridges. Making the rook rifles useless and obsolete.
It must have more to do with changes in the law.
This 1895 was bored out to 410 from 303 British!!
