I've never seen reserved public IP ranges for this sort of thing. There
are reserved block ranges for private networks, but if I understood the OP,
the point to reserve a public block of IP addresses, and use them as
private addresses, specifically to avoid IP subnet conflicts.
Since the private IP ranges are free for all, it's very easy to be on a
private network, and try to VPN into your own network, and have a conflict
as the remote network uses the same private numbers as yours.
If you understand, then I apologize, not trying to sound condescending
but it may come across that way if you already knew that and I was missing
a point. :-)
