TBH I'd call BASC and ask their firearms advice team about how best to get this done.
They're pretty helpful and can help with "negotiations".
Your not asking for a less restrictive condition
you need to have added a Condition to Shoot vermin and allow you to buy Expanding ammo/bullets which will be Restricted to Cleared land only
to do this you need a reason so Permission to shoot the land by the Owner/occupier and it will need to be Cleared for calibre if its not already
once you have shot like this for a period of time you could ask for the Condition to only shoot cleared land to be removed this is the less restrictive condition
(the requirement for this vary from force to force)
On several occaisions over the past few weeks i have noticed a few posters say that although target shooters have had training and shoot under the control of a RCO its a completely different kettle of fish shooting in the field and that mantoring is a good idea.As a shooter that has shot for many years at both but starting as a target shooter i find this quite annoying, i can only assume that those that are spouting this inaccuracy have never shot at a decent rifle club. I have been shooting vermin with guys and also witnessed shooters who's gun handling is so poor they would have been kicked out of any rifle.I think all field shooters would benefit from membership of a rifle club where safe gun handling and use is taught by trained and approved instructers rather then jumpimg on the bandwagon assuming all target shooters have no idea how to conduct themselves in the countryside with a rifle.Ian.
Sounds like you local licensing dept is a bit rubbish! If our dept up here were so rubbish I'd be having words with their boss, they are supposed to be there for guidance as well as presiding over their godly power of to grant or not to grant
Oh my God, just looked at that link, that's horrendous.
