There is also a condition which ensures that possession, purchase or acquisition of expanding ammunition by a firearm certificate holder is restricted to certain purposes, namely use with a slaughtering instrument, sporting purposes, estate husbandry, competition purposes (including target shooting) and target shooting outside competition.
