    Other calibers in the M85?

    Was the M85 officially offered in any other caliber besides the 308/7.62 nato?

    Apologies for the delay, missed your question for some reason....thanks Doug for flagging it up.
    No the Parker Hale M85 was never offered in any other calibre, it was too good as it was
