Magazine Capacity for Rifles


Recommended Posts

I apologize in advance if I posted this in the wrong area. I have been looking around and cant seem to find any info. I know for big game hunting the magazine capacity for rifles is limited to five rounds. Is there a magazine capacity for coyote hunting?

Where did you get the magazine restriction idea? I feel you have been the victim of a bad rumor. There are many factory rifles that hold more than 5 rounds and there is no mention of any magazine restriction in any regulations. The only restrictions are 3 rounds for waterfowl and the minimum of a 22 caliber or larger CENTERFIRE cartridge.

After talking to someone else after I posted this, it would appear that my mindset is still in the assault weapons ban time. I was speaking specificaly of using an AR for hunting. When my dad got his first AR like 17 years ago, he got a AR15 in the 7.62 x39 and he had to buy 5 round magazines to use it hunting. I have learned that since this ended a few years ago there is no magazine restriction anymore. This would be a good example of not doing enough research before asking a question, which would explain why I cant find info on this.
