File:Jackal.jpg

This rifle, used in The Day of the Jackal (1973) was created by a master English gunsmith from an off the shelf sporting rifle. Two identical rifles were produced, one being returned to England as per agreement.
The gun appears to be chambered for .22 Magnum; some believe that it used .22 Hornet calibre ammunition, based on the bullets seen on screen. In the film, they were said to have hollow tips filled with mercury to make them "explosive".
