rogcal Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 I've got approx 600 rounds of 22LR ammunition to dispose of mostly Remington subsonic but also some Winchester high velocity. The buyer of my rifle didn't want them as it was a transfer to Iceland (no not the store) and importing ammunition privately is difficult according to him. I've looked on the selling and buying forums and Gunwatch doesn't have a category for ammunition, so what do I do with them? I could spend a couple of hours breaking them open, burning off the powder and burying the rest but seems like a waste. As they are all hollowpoint I can't donate them to the local rifle club as they have a ban on such ammunition. Ideas please. Thanks p.s. Yes, I know I could hand them in to an RFD but I wouldn't want them to profit from something I would rather see used by someone who may be on limited funds.

martyn2233 Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 Put them here https://forums.pigeonwatch.co.uk/forums/forum/28-other-sales/ with price and location Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogcal Posted February 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 (edited) Thanks for the suggestion Martyn. I did look through the "other sales" pages and couldn't see any rifle ammunition being offered, so assumed it wouldn't be appropriate but after having another look I found one ad selling .308 ammo, so I shall list mine on there.

oowee Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 I took all mine back to the shop and exchanged them for other ammunition. They gave me back what I paid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rovercoupe Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 If you need shut of them then most sporting auctions have ammunition in there sales so could be done that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekers Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 As above, offer them for sale on PW at sensible prices and they will go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince Green Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 I believe there is no ban on .22 hollow point ammunition anymore, anyone with an FAC for .22 ammo can buy it now, so I am told Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
