Didn't see any Anschutz up there on the 10m Men's air rifle final. Any reason the Steyr and the Walther seem to be preferred? Just curious

Reportedly a Waldini won the Men's 10M.

I saw photos of William Shaner and thought his rifle was a bit chunky for a Pardini.

Steyr did a commercial move by giving their air rifles to some shooters to promote it.
Walther did the same some years ago, now mixing with the Feinwerkbau.
Anschutz was always lacking behind in terms of appearance, but since the 9000 series, they hit the 10 as good as all the others brands.

πŸ˜‚ it’s a specialized conversion of Walther lg400 e with a pardini stock. A bit of customization but seemed to work well!
