    Inert rounds

    Just wondering if anybody had any spare inert rounds? , one of my workmates sons has been asking him for some , he is only 7 and his dad asked me where he can buy them from, I've got a few but if any body has any too sell he's willing to pay for them + the postage
    Thanks ,, Shaun

    Will need a bit of time to dig out my dies, came across press and biscuit tin of mixed cases the other day!
    Cheers

    Hi Phil , he isn't bothered, he's only 7 so all different calibres would be brilliant , it would show him all the shapes and sizes that rounds come in ,,

    I've seen some lovely looking .50 BMG pens made buy a guy over the pond using once fired brass and real bullets (they looked alloy tipped). Trying to get stuff like that over here as a causal buyer is like buying weapons of mass destruction.

    This might seem sad but one of my most prized possessions is the spent case from the first ever CF I fired.

    Its on my shelf in my man cave.

    section 5 is section 5. doesn't matter if it is loaded in an empty case or loose on the desk. any ammunition that is designed to expand or explode and classed as section 5 is prohibited by law.

    there are those that say what will they know but i for one would not want to be the one test case that goes wrong. the lad will be fine, its the sender at fault for supplying section 5 ammunition.

    I realise this, sarcasm obviously doesn't transfer, it's so obvious that they need to be loaded with a target bullet that it didn't really need saying!

    .22h will be loaded with FMJ, .223 with a TMK, .308 SMK swede FMJ, may even do a .357 mag cast.....
    Thanks for looking

    Mate careful not to send the lad any section 5 bullets before Christmas.

    Let him have it with his family and get him jailed in the New Year, he'll appreciate the time off school.
