Take it that i have a deer legal caliber .243/.308 etc
If i was to be invited on a supervised stalk or was to buy a stalking break/holiday could i use my own rifle or could i only use one provided by the person or company that i was stalking with.

I would read that as you would have to use the estate rifle, have a word with your firearms dept, if you are booking stalking then that would be a good reason to have whatever wording your Police use to cover "Deer and any other legal quarry" added .

If a rifle is built with a muzzle break IE most AR clones or an accuracy international can they be shot without the breaks as one place I shoot dosnt like them.or will it cause a problem.

Shoot somewhere that doesn't mind you using the brake. Vote with your feet and take your money elsewhere.

The rifle will handle slightly differently (if the brake is doing anything at all) and POA/POI may be different from shooting it with the brake attached.

Other than that it won't affect the rifle adversely.

This may have been asked before.
i have 5 slots on my licence .22rf ,223/5.56 , .308/7.62 , .303 .38 two of these im not realy going to use and would like to change and apply for different calibers,
i want delete 1 x .223/5.56 and 1x .38 and swop for 1 X .22 ,1X .303 and add 1X.308/7.62
is this likley to cause any problems apart from any assoriated fees

So long as you can demonstrate good reason and have adequate security for the extra rifle, they usually inspect again when you are increasing the number of firearms on your FAC, then you should be OK.

As you will be paying for the extra slot then you may wish to think about any other calibres that you may want and get them added at the same time, then you will have free one for ones to play with in the future and save you the extra cost.

thanks Dromia
I hadn't thought of that,i have room for an extra slot in the safe so might as well use it.

I've just been filling in the variation paperwork and it asked for the calibers that are to be disposed of , how do i fill this in as i never actually bought the calibers i just want to change them ?

Gun insurance
I have my shotgun and Lee Enfield covered on my house insurance for accidental damage, theft etc.
Can anyone recommend a reasonable specialist insurance company to cover them completely separate from my house policy
Thanks

I'd check what the NRA insurance, as part of your membership, covers first.
