    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.

    If I don’t reply to your comments it’s probably because you’re on my Ignore list.

    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
