Question: Forgetting "best" guns, are there any british makers that offer shotguns around my price point that are very high quality guns, but not necessarily considered "best"?

Nope, don't think so. sorry to be the bearer of bad news but the cheapest new guns currently available would probably be Longthorne guns, but they are far from "very high quality" and most definitely not "Best guns" by English gun standards. http://www.longthorneguns.com/

They seem however to have found themselves a niche in the starter end market for O/U only.

A new "Best" British side lock gun will cost anywhere from £35/40K up to £100K depending on the engraving, wood and finish. A good oak and leather case will cost £5-7K on top!

In my opinion, the only truly "Very Best guns" are made by Hartmann & Weiss in Hamburg Germany, they are just in a class of their own!
