    It's what the Poms call a "permission"

    @schwen there is no public land in Western Australia allowed for hunting, so to obtain a firearms licence you need a property letter giving you permission to shoot on their land, this allows you to provide a need to procure a firearm. The bigger the property and the bigger the animals the bigger the cartridge allowed. Every year the firearms law is tightened up so soon you and the landowner have an app to sign onto to say you are on the property what rifles you have how much ammo you have, what is used what is left and what animals you have taken. There is an inspection done by the local council to confirm the pests still remain and the licence can continue to be issued. People in NZ who grumble about access to hunting areas have no fucken idea how tough it is outside NZ.
    Trout, Finnwolf and schwen like this.

    It's a bloody stupid system to be fair, as property owners who don't give a damn or use the property for other purposes just re-infest those that do control. Landowners go back to the rule makers for assistance get laughed at. What a dumb system.

    The second to last can't be a .358 is the previous is actually a .308. The case is fatter.
    Other than that, your other guesses look good.

    Pic quality is so poor, it make guessing very difficult. I'm unconvinced it has a rebated rim.

    Ideally, the pic need retaking with the light behind the camera, with camera level with cases and slight zoom often helps eliminate the fish eye.
