As above I’ve put in for a variation on my firearms for which I currently have an open 1.7hmr and 22 for the past 8 years. I’ve gone for a 243 but it’s been refused as they don’t have time to come and check my land as there to busy and told me I should reapply in September when there hopefully quieter.a friend has a 223 passed on my land for wich I had to give him written permission and show and officer round 2-3 years ago but apparently they have no record off that .Is this valid reason to decline it all thoughts and help welcome
