Description:
The Sportco .22 Martini Action rifle is a single-shot target rifle known for its accuracy and precision. It typically uses a Martini-style action, which is a tilting-block mechanism initially designed in the late 19th century and popularised by the British Martini-Henry rifles. The Sportco .22 is mainly known for its use in target shooting and small game hunting due to its reliability and smooth operation.
These rifles are often chambered in .22 Long Rifle (.22 LR), a popular and inexpensive cartridge ideal for target shooting. The Martini action allows for a solid lock-up and a short, crisp trigger pull, contributing to its accuracy.
Sportco, an Australian firearms manufacturer, produced these rifles and collectors and enthusiasts often seek after them for their craftsmanship and historical value. Depending on the specific model and condition, they can vary in value on the second-hand market.
