The primers/powder/bullets i have left over from other guns i owned and loaded for but cases are from the gun i could be loading for.

It might be legal over there but here it will get you a spell inside, loss of ticket, confiscation of weapons etc etc.
Having parts and dies to make 223 rounds is not illegal though, mind you if you dont have a 22 on ticket of any sort then possession of bullets in that caliber is (I think) an offence.
Another issue is that if his gun blows up if he survives he will come looking for you armed with a posse of no win no fee lawyers.
Suggest you have your friend on hand at show him hands on how to load his own, either that or get insured and do it commercially with an RFD ticket.
