    Probably the best 222 ever made, along with the early BSA's and BRNO's. Vixens in good nick are getting harder to come by now, so look after yours mate, it'll see ya out.

    Try like hell to find something else that you can liquidate without copping a massive loss, which is pretty much guaranteed with these semi custom rifles.
