Hi-Power Jack Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Welcome aboard Are you living in the Alsace / Lorraine region of France? Are you allowed to reload your own ammunition in France? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle4 Posted September 10, 2016 Author Share Posted September 10, 2016 (edited) Thanks all, i'm living northern from Paris in Picardie ( Alsace/Lorraine are eastern) In France we are allowed to buy 1000 manufactured rounds by classified guns (pistol, semi auto rifle) each year. Hunting cartridge and 22lr are not limited for buying. If you want more you need to ask a new permition. So a lot of french shooters reload their own cartridges, it's more simple and a little bit less expensive. Personnaly i use a Dillon XL650 Edited September 10, 2016 by Eagle4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnbu Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Welcome! Goodness, only 1000 per year? Hopefully your component costs aren't too expensive and easy to obtain. is it difficult to find a range to practice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagle4 Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 Hi everybody ! yes we can find all components without difficulty ! For the range it' easy to find 100 meter but 200m or more it's hard. The big difficult in France it's to find a range with our national shooting sport's federation agree to practice IPSC... :/ Specific rules to practice : not all range, only with RO with official federation agree (not all RO). If you want to shoot a match you must be on the "offical list" before shooting. It's the french's IPSC hard way... It's easier to shoot outside the country.

acutler Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 I'm a shooter in FL however I've got French roots through my wife as she was born in Paris and still has lots of family in and around the Paris area. I have three brother in laws who live there that enjoy shooting however I don't know how to help them find matches. Can you point me in the right direction?

Hi, near from Paris they are a lot of range, if they want shooting no problem to find a club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
