    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.
