Do you have any left over ??

 

223-224-264-243-303-308 heads surplus. Maybe an old calibre you had.

or

I am looking to buy any surplus powder or ammo you have. Will collect, within reasonable price & distance.

Are you aware of the legality of what you are seeming to suggest. You can be jailed for 5 years if you are found in possession of a bullet that you are not authorised to hold. If you are an RFD then it might be as well to state that.

You are assuming he is not licensed for the ammo he is requesting? I do have some friends who arent RFD's but have a similar list of permitted calibres on their tickets.

Agreed I am assuming that.

 

With a box full of those calibers why buy suplus bullets that may be unsuited for what the guy has in mind, they would mostly need to be F to F anyway. As for old powder, I may buy some powder from a mate who knows what he is about reloading wise, ie it has not been subjected to high temps, damp or been mixed but not from a complete stranger.

 

The request just did not ring right with me in fact it rang alarm bells but on checking the guy has nearly 100 posts so must be a sporting shooter.

That would only apply if it were a bullet which was designed or adapted to expand on or immediately after impact. You are correct if it's ammunition though, and you don't have authority for it.
