Pigeon Paul Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 One for my fellow Hants residents.... I am putting in my 1st Fac application with Hants police and will be applying for .22Lr and 17HMR. Do Hants police allow .17 for fox or will I need to apply for centre fire aswell?

roundy Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 On my vist from the FEO, Don, he said that .17HMR is not a "fox calibre" - however, fox is classed as vermin/pest so the likely hood of prosecution from using it is nil, but...it would not be granted as a "use" but the occasional close range one is fine.
