Scully Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 This has been done numerous times on here, so you could spare yourself some time by doing a search if you wanted. I had two .22rf rifles once. One was LR, the other Magnum. When I applied for either I simply applied for .22RF. My RFD sold me a .22rf rifle, albeit a magnum one, and at a different time a .22rf rifle, albeit a lr one. As far as he was concerned it was a rf rifle, and this applied to my FEO also. Others will tell you that your RFD wont sell you a .22 magnum rimfire unless it states '.22 magnum rimfire' on your ticket, and that your FEO would not be chuffed if you bought a magnum without it stipulating on your ticket .22 magnum rimfire, so I suppose it all depends on what your FEO or RFD deems is necessary. In law, they are both .22rf, and unless it states on your certificate 'authorised to possess one .22rf rifle (NOT .22 rf magnum) then you are perfectly entitled to buy either. That's how I see it, as did my RFD. MY FEO was none the wiser, or if he was he never mentioned it. If you specify .22rf lr, then you will be only allowed to possess lr, the same as if you specified magnum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
