For ANYTING BIGGER THAN AAA Nonsense, SG & SSG and some of the American sizes are legally available to SGC holders and both are bigger than AAA. Follow the link and look at the price lists and you will find large shot size cartridges: www.justcartridges.com/pricelists.html Slug are FAC only, not sure about LG size shot Also see: www.jonathan-spencer.co.uk/Reference/Guns/Shotgun/Ammo/Shotsize.pdf Quote Link to post
Dan_Mercian 27 Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Shit, yeah, forgot about sg But slugs I've heard, even on FAC are that strictly controlled it's pretty hard to prove need for them. Quote Link to post

Prhaps you would like to read the Law. SSG 22 Pellets Quote Link to post
salukiwhippet 6 Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Ummm, not quite right - five pellets or fewer, or if any pellet is bigger than .36", an FAC is required. James Quote Link to post
matt_hooks 188 Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 So much uninformed bs! The law states "a minimum of 6 projectiles, with a max diameter of .36 inches" There are plenty of shot sizes bigger than AAA that are perfectly legal. Quote Link to post
Waz 4,213 Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Use the solid rifled slugs for boar in Europe. No restrictions on buying them, just a hunting permit. What quarry would you use them on in the UK? Maybe give me 2 answers the in theory ie within in law, and maybe outside of the law - pre ban whatever lol. Quote Link to post
stalkerboydy 4 Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 So much uninformed bs! The law states "a minimum of 6 projectiles, with a max diameter of .36 inches" IS THAT RIGHT There are plenty of shot sizes bigger than AAA that are perfectly legal. YOUR RIGHT AGAIN if you have a FAC or walk the WRONG SIDE of the Law OH an i had had a FAC for 36+yrs. Carry on as you know best Quote Link to post

ChickenFarmer 0 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 LG is right on the legal size limit. Not worth the risk in view of manufacturing tolerances. I use up to SG/LG ... slightly bigger than SG. Quote Link to post

That round is section 2 not section 1 Quote Link to post
