Rifle + Mod And expanding ammo will be as given if you have vermin/ground game etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rizzini Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Hi mate. For the Rifle and moderator. Put the rifle in one column and then in the next put MODERATOR below it and the caliber the MODERATOR will be fitted to. Other wise when you go to buy and rifle the person selling the rifle can only sell you a rifle WITH a moderator not just the rifle matey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is absolutely no legal requirement to use expanding ammo on vermin so take nothing for granted!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizzini Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 You have to put the mod down as a separate authorisation as it is actually a firearm in its own right so is actually an additional firearm on your cert. put it on its own slot mate, if you put down moderated rifle, and for example want to buy you rifle and mod from different shops, you cant, because your ticket states MODERATED RIFLE so thats what you have to buy, thats what my feo told me anyway.

Colster Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Moderator has to be applied for separately so fill in another line underneath the rifle for the moderator. Under reason you can put whatever you put for the rifle ie Vermin. DONT rely on them granting HP ammo automatically, my FEO told me I'd need to wait for renewal for expanding ammo as I wouldn't get it on a first application! He is new and was quickly overruled by the FLO who told me they put it on automatically when you put vermin as your reason but don't rely on it.

Billy. Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 (edited) As above, don't rely on them working out that you need expanding ammo. They'll just process it and it'll be you who loses out of you don't put it down. MY BIG TIP! Is to put down in the ammo max purchase box, numbers which are divisible by the number of rounds you get in a box. So, for rimmy ammo, I would put down 500 buy or 1000 buy. (.22lr come in 'bricks' of 500, so you'll make a saving) For centrefire ammo, anything divisible by 20. Ammo sometimes comes in 10's but they're few and far between. I'd say go for 100 to buy, but I doubt you'll ever have the money to buy that many in one go. However if you ever want to reload you own ammo, you'll be pretty stuck if you can only buy and hold 40 rounds...! Good luck and don't be afraid to ask any other questions (As long as you've thought about the question first ) Edited February 23, 2010 by harfordwmj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
