Russell...our grandson is about to get a new rifle for BPCRA 22...His old rifle is a Mirouku 1885 with Shilen barrel. It's very accurate...I have done well with it until I received my Hepburn. When we get our rifles back from being re-barreled we'll probably sell his mirouku 1885. We got a VERY good deal on it from a shooter that quit and we'll sell it for what we paid for it. $800.00. If you don't get a rifle for your bud, let us know.
