Unwanted ammunition

I may well end up with some remaining 38/357 handloads but nothing to shoot them with, as I'm decreasing my collection in case I need to put into storage with an RFD during our planned move, which may mean renting for a while with no guarantee of a landlord that would be happy about holes being drilled for a cabinet.
I believe I can't sell ammunition I've made, am I allowed to give it away?

Trouble is who wants to shoot someone else's handloads. I don't doubt your loads are safe, BUT!!!! would you want to shoot something that someone else had handloaded in your rifle????

On the subject of handloading, the NRA have published this:

It applies to Bisley and MOD ranges.

If I knew them well, and they've been meticulous in recording their loads, I would (and have). There are two chaps in my club who produce superb hand loads and are the very fountain of knowledge.
Some bloke off the net. Nah. I'd pull them for the components.
