They don't need that proof, mate. The law uses the phrase 'capable of exceeding the legal limit' - and it refers to the gun, not its user.

THAT'S what all the fuss is about.

For the record, the shooting lobby has been campaigning for a 'test round' for many years. The logic in support of it is overwhelming and we've even offered to fund the required pellet supply/development. We're still trying.
