you will have to fill in another form and pass it to your feo asking for the variation to be added to allow you to buy the .22 rimfire dont forget to ask for a .22 moderator you will also have to ask to hold .22 ammunition, I can hold 600 rounds and buy 500 rounds.

 

hope this helps

And don't forget you'll probably need to show them a permission letter for the land you wish to shoot on, and they will want to check the land if it's not approved already.

 

Oh, and most importantly for them, don't forget the cheque for £26!

I think you have to request expanding ammunition as well.

[matt_hooks 188]

If the calibre is issued for vermin, then expanding ammunition should be added automatically, but worth mentioning to the FEO.

My feo keeps trying to reduce it at every renewal but as I buy in lots of 500 to save cash,Im not budging and he can't reduce it as long as I keep buying in 500 round lots,Im also allowed to hold 200 rounds of 22-250rem and buy 100 which is down to the fact that I home load these...

I was told that "economic reasons", or "home loading", were not valid reasons for increasing the holding of ammunition when I asked for my "buy" limit on .243 to be increased to allow me to buy whole boxes of bullets!

It amazies me how different feo's translate the law to suit themselves could it maybe be due to your location mate,I buy my bullet heads in boxes of 100 dont think the shops round here would split the boxes.

Don't forget to ask for a sound mod as well.

There is a guide to filling out form 101 on the BASC web site
