.22 to .17HMR

    Hi,

    I currently have a ruger 10.22 and I am considering trading it in for a CZ 455 .17HMR. I'm wondering can I transfer my licence? I know its not like for like, but I've well over a year left on my .22 licence.

    Or would I have to cancel my .22 licence and apply fresh for a .17hmr?

    Thanks for any advice.

    i have a 455 thumbhole 17 and its a fantastic yoke.Have 2500 rounds through it and its a smasher.shes a bit heavy once you stick on a decent scope,bipod etc so im actually looking for something like a 10/22 maybe in magnum for the smaller work.How acurate was yours at 100 yards.

    yea bit heavy with all on it, found it fairly accurate, never tried it on paper but hit the rabbits where i wanted to hit, was sorry to see it go, beautiful rifle well finished, i would hold on to it mate.
