As told in another posting,

| echo 63000 >/etc/fedora/usermgmt/basegid
| echo 63000 >/etc/fedora/usermgmt/baseuid

would change the used range to 63000-....

But somebody seems to have configured it already as:

* the predefined base-ids are '300' in the fedora-usermgmt-setup package
* the 'predictable uid' mechanism is turned off by default and users
  will be created dynamically. You have to turn it on explicitly by

  | /usr/sbin/update-alternatives --set fedora-usermgmt /etc/fedora/usermgmt/scripts.shadow-utils
