dusk2dawn Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 Can't advise you on the legal side of things Mung. But comparing shooting a fox with a rimfire and centrefire. Once you nail him with a .223 the rimmy will stay in the cabinet. Good luck with your application, I sincerely hope you get what you go looking for! The difference was explained to me as comparing the .22 as hitting the fox with a hammer and the .223 as hitting it with a sledgehammer its about right imo.

cartridge Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 When i apply i am going for .22lr rf semi-auto because its the only caliber ,that you have the luxury of not working the bolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auto culto Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 i put down for fac air , .22rf, .17rf and .223 centerfire. got the lot with no probs. When i applied i wasn't bothered about the centre fire but was told that i would in no way be granted to shoot fox with a rf, so i Just told the Flo that i needed to cull foxes and put down for a .223. But be warned the power and range is truly frightening when you start to see what they are exactly capable of but boy are they funlol: Its strange really as the gov is setting the guidelines so in doing so are having to grant more center fires (fine by me B) ) Just make sure you put down for mods aswell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope. Anything other than .22RF in semi is a section 5 firearm. That does mean that you can get a .22WSM in semi though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
