Puggers Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 I have four .22LR's on my ticket but had them from the beginning so a while now - self-loading (semi auto), bolt action, gallery rifle (a Marlin Golden Boy) and a benchrest but it all depends on what you're looking for. This is in addition to two pistols and .357 rifle. You maybe asked why you need two of the same if you're not a club member and in competitions but best bet is probably to call your local licencing office and sound them out but hope you get what you need.

swiss.tony Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 get a .17 mate then you have best of both worlds longer range for day 22 for night vision and stick 223 down for fox they can only so NO but they wont Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ging125 Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 yeah its the same form! I got 2 22lr a bolt action for day and semi auto for night. Had a 17HMR very accurate, a little loud and wind sensitive. Changed the 17hmr with variation for 223 fox and long range vermin as it was wind sensitve. W.Yorkshire didnt even contact me about it just sent it back as i had requested on the variation. you shouldnt have a problem so long as you have "good reason" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bedwards1966 Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 It's the same forms, but without the referee stuff. And a £26 cheque. Put down night vision as the 'good reason' for a second .22, that's acceptable. For foxes, you need a .22 center-fire or larger (.223 is a commonly used foxing round, it's a good choice) - it depends on the ranges you intend to shoot them at. A step up from a .223 could be a .22-250 or a .243 if you like to make them very dead over long distances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet1747 Posted July 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Just another thought do I send my cert in same time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bedwards1966 Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 I think that you normally would, however don't forget that when you do so you can't buy any more ammo. If the waiting times are long then sometimes you can send in the forms, and when they process it then send in your certificate when needed. If they deal with things quickly then it's easier to just send it in (but I don't know what your force is like). If you know someone who can buy you ammo then that makes it easier.
