Dear Fluffy People,

Have heard a rumour that .338 has been banned at Bisley. Is this true and if so (BUGGER!!!!). Have heard that the powers at bee want to ban civilian ownership of .338, .405, .50BMG precision rifles.

My advice is if true move to Germany

Well, you've heard right, but you've also heard wrong.
It's the military that have imposed the ban on .338, and that's only because of the safety issue.
As for the ban on civilian ownership.....not true, so long as you can show good reason.

And BTW, I'd much rather live here than amongst a bunch of Eurotrash with mullets on their heads

.338 has been banned at Bisley, but .338 and other large calibre rounds can still be shot on various field firing ranges throughout the UK...... I'm not aware of their planned demise...

The .50 Calibre Shooter Association has been on the go for some time and I'm pretty sure John  Masefield and the rest of them would be the first to know if their "toys" were for the chop.........
