Oh for some common rules. We asked for 1000/1200 in .22lr and got it in Staffs. They were concerned about my 500/600 7.62 though for some reason, and only on my ticket. Louise (same household, same time app, same interview) got 500/600 in both 7.62 and .308. I didn't ask for the .308 and got a grilling about the 7.62. He gave it to me in the end. Most odd.
The above post probably contains sarcasm or some other form of attempted wit, please don't take it to heart.

She got the record for fastest aquisitions. Three slots filled within 10 minutes of picking the FACs up from the front desk of the cop shop. O:-)

Sorry no pictures tonight. Picking up an Anschutz match 64 tomorrow too ;)

Got another question: I've got a S1 shotgun on my FAC and buy/hold 200/300 slugs. Can I buy other types of cartridges without a shotgun certificate? I.e. birdshot.

Took them to the range today.

The 10/22 is ammo fussy. Doesn't like the Geko ammo the club sells. Many failures to extract.
Ran mini mags fine though.

The Anschutz is great! I need a better scope though. I can see one hole groups in the future :good:
