Can someone tell me the legal position regarding the use of this rifle in Scotland?
In its standard form, North of the border, it's roe only. Rest of the UK, small deer only. I think, if you could load it to meet the minimum velocity in Scotland (a big if), you'd have to use such a light bullet that it would be a varmint rated one. In England and Wales, I don't think you'll get it to 1700 ft/lbs. The cartridge was never meant to run at these levels.
