What brand is the French rifle?

Hey Russian. Rifle brand is called a Unique, not made any more, very accurate and reliable. They are semi hand built and hard to find now, a few of the boyz on here have them also.
Awesome balance and lovely to use.
first walk with the .204 singleshot varmint rifle this morning . . . a quick sight in at 100yds then into it with some 40s & 32grn. loads

Yesterday I took the HMR back to a place I haven't shot since October last year and boy was that some fun for the afternoon! Longest shots were @ 143m and 137m!! Was super happy with with the arvo's work

rabbit stew for the next 2 weeks by the look of it well done mate hope you were happy with the Ruger 1
first impressions of the Ruger No.1 are very positive, i always wanted one - they're an iconic american rifle & and to my eye an attractive rifle, especially the varmint model . . . looking forward to spending more time behind the trigger and loading/shooting the .204 cartridge
only problem for the Ruger is i will always end up comparing it to the VarTarg . . that rifle is a ferkn machine so its got a hard job to shine in such company
You Guys have reminded me to get the Unique out for a walk tomorrow - just about to send the Savage hmr to Queenstown - hope he can lug it around better than I could - who needs a bull barrel anyway?
I like to give possums a leg up into a Timms - they seem to like a ramp

Beautiful rifle @viper. In 1962 I worked at Tisdalls sports shop in PNth after school. Tisdalls' stocked the Unique and my job every Friday afternoon was to oil all of the rifles in the rack with "Youngs 303" oil. There was a row of about 25 rifles, unlocked, and available to access by the public. I still remember the beautiful sheen that the oil put on the Unique's blueing. You are so privileged to own one and I'm glad that you enjoy it.
Thanks Tahr, they are very cool little rifles and lovely to handle and shoot. I don't take mine out a lot these days because of the sheer volume of shooting I am doing now . The accuracy amazes me but the reliability is astounding. Mine will shoot subs ( dirty ) and go 700 - 1000 rds before I get the odd jam. Shoots everything, cycles everything . Keep your eye on Trademe , they do come up. A mate of mine got one after using mine for an afternoon. $600, one owner with original manual.
If I see one I will let you know.....unless you already have one of course.
