Percy Stanbury’s gun was made in the 1920s long before the first 700 came out in 1949. It was most likely a 400 series shotgun.[/quote]


It was indeed a Model 400. From Crawford and Whatley's book on Scott guns: "Percy Stanbury, one of the most famous British shooting coaches, used his Model 400 Proprietary to claim 47 championships between 1926 and 1953."
