Have to agree with this one. I'm based in Taranaki and spend a fair bit of time in the Hawkes Bay. Only the Bell Block farmlands had any significant range of ammunition. The others had a couple of pack of 22, maybe 223, 303 & 308. The amount if shotgun ammo depended on how close duck shooting was.

They didn't have enough to make it worth going in there to look for ammo. Not their core business or interest.

Bell Block only has a decent range of ammo because one of their staff is ex H&F. It's his interest.

If we had all bought more ammo from farmlands, maybe they would have kept selling it.

But it was never their main business, and it's become too much work and too expensive for them

Another one bites the dust. A great example of changing ammunition available bymaking things expensive rather than illegal. easier to get under the radar
