The UK's Finest Independent Forum for Shooters and Gun Owners. Est 2010.

How many times have you purchased a box of bullets and then either never been totally happy with them, or changed calibre or found something that seems to work for you, so leaving a half full box on the bench never to be used again.

Or have you ever wanted to try something slightly different but not wanted to buy a full box in case they did not work out for you?

So how about a bullet exchange, if you have something you are never going to use or there is something you would like to try list it in this thread and see if another F-B(UK) member responds.

EDIT - The Phoenix would be a good place to meet up for swaps as well as it saves on postage.

Good idea , presumably ballistic tip ,soft point and hollow point cant be posted so it has to be F 2 F .

Yes expanding ammunition would need to be F2F but target is fine to post albeit quite heavy.

alsdo remember expanding needs a condition on the ticket to aquire it and it needs to be entered on your ticket even though some rfd dont do it

No requirement to enter bullets on your certificate according to the Home Office guidance to police document only to record sales in the dealers register, however some forces require dealers to do so.
