As per the post title. This is a bit of private research which I hope to combine with numbers from sending FOI requests to a handful of selected police forces.

I applied to have my ammunition limit of .22RF upped from 2100 to 5100 but got turned down.
The argument that I use a LOT of it at benchrest and want consistency by using the same batch number didn't work.

Have yet to have a variation refused or amended but will shortly be putting another in for a few more so will let you know if there're any issues

Yes, every time I put in a variation I ask Durham to increase my 22LR allowance from 600, after 4 years it's still not been done.

I had the same thing. I fought my corner and provided results of shooting at county level and the amount of visits to the club and eventually got it overturned...
