One farm will do. Its more about the land type than size.

 

If its first grant theyl err on the side of caution normally, but if its been cleared it should be straight forward.

As said its all about backstops etc not the size of the farm

One farm will do mate,if its passed,but unless its got lots of bunnies you will get fed up pretty quick just on one piece of land,get the fac and start to try and find some more land,it will need to be passed also, as your ticket will be closed at first,ie you can only use your rifle on land passed safe by the chief officer of the area where the land is situated,put plenty of ammo through it,get some more land and eventually you will get your ticket opened up,and be able to use it anywhere you have permission,(it is then up to you to decide if its safe or not)good luck mate if you got any queries, feel free to pm me mate.

How long would it take to get a .22 rimmy on an open licence?

 

I'm guessing most would ask for it to be open on the first FAC renewal? But has anyone had any luck asking for it sooner?

ok many thanks for the reply so if I get a closed ticket on the one farm I can shoot on any land that has been passed before

 

 

thanks

Yes that is correct,unless they slap a mentor condition on you,but that is unlikely on a .22rimmy,as you have a shotgun ticket,and so know the basics of safe shooting,as I said feel free to pm me if you want to ask anything.
