TWOTWOTHREE 152 Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 (edited) Hi I asked my feo the question so i could settle a debate between me and a mate.a mate said 22cf covered all of them and to be honest that just doesnt sound right. The answer was no it doesn't you have to specify which either it be a rimfire or cf,On my ticket one of the rifles say .22 rf but that didn't mean I could have bought a wmr though it be a 22rf.I can see how it can give the wrong impression.

jamie g 17 Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 depends on force area. some wont some will. here in west mercia depending on your feo officer some will let you have 22cf and let you pick your own. others wont. my last 17 centrefire they put down as 17 rifle. and it let me pick which one i wanted. i was surprised it didn't say 17 cf. as 17 rifle could mean hmr also ?

TWOTWOTHREE 152 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 With that amount of land patt I would imagine your covered for what ever cal u want,let us no what you end up with Atb 223 Quote Link to post
worthy130 21 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 With that amount of land patt I would imagine your covered for what ever cal u want,let us no what you end up with Atb 223 Its not the amount of land its the layout of the land, I keeper 4200 acres the highest been 1000ft above sea lvl and the lowest is at sea lvl, we are cleared up to .270 but to be honest alot of the individual fields shouldn't even be cleared for .17 or .22rf its almost like having an open licence but not Quote Link to post
