[QUOTE="Brown Dog, post: 95727, member: 1622"] Jeza, Depends -as always- on the mood of your firearms licensing staff. BASC always seem to take an extraordinarily weak line on this (ie only an idiot can seriously contend that a 308 is 'more dangerous' than a 243...they are both potentially lethal, they both have range danger templates so close as to be considered identical....they are equally 'dangerous'). Personally..and I've only got experience of N Yorks and Wiltshire licensing....I would be stunned if just applying for a 308 for whatever 'good reason' you have at the moment plus the statement 'and for large deer' were not all you need. ..no 'proofs' of Scottish bookings should even enter the equation. I got 300win mag for the statement 'and the larger deer species' and 9.3mm for the statement 'for african plains game and the larger deer species'.......no 'proofs' required; but 'good reason' established. ..apply for the variation and see what plod say!
