Thanks for your replies Gents.
We have similar requirements for safes and storage. We have a limit on purchasing factory ammunition quantity as well. So reloading is popular as less restrictive.
Also our handgun permit has to be renewed every 5 years. This was every 3 years up until 2013. So they have improved the system !
But at least we can still enjoy our pistol target shooting; it just means you have to accept the paperwork.
