Question on hunting with .22lr

[TPark]

Then why even bother buying one. Essentially your saying nobody should have these as others will get "Scared".

See Topher's response. He got what I was trying to say and added more.

You care about what anti hunters think about you and your way of life????

I do care because we hunters are regulated by the non-hunters. We need to use diplomacy and common sense if we want to continue with the privalige to hunt. Unfortunately in this society hunting or firearms are not a right such as in the USA. We want to protect what we have.

If only sarcasm had something like quotation marks to make it obvious...

I read his post, but you still insinuate we shouldn't use this type of firearm. So explain. Are you advocating people not use these firearms for hunting?

Hunt with the 715T. I have one ( I actually own a lot of .22s). I find the feed issues occur when you load the mag past 20.


I have other, more accurate .22s that I would hunt with, but if it's what you want to take to the field with, have at it.

Hunting laws (and the provincial government) have nothing to do with how the RCMP and Federal government decide to classify firearms. They are entirely seperate. Different levels of government who dont discuss the matters at all.

Actually hunting is a " right " . . It's part of the Heritage Act . Firearms ownership on the other hand like a drivers license are a privilege .

Heads up on the 25 Rd. Mag for the 715t.. Heard on another forum that this magazine is going to be prohibited as Mossberg has designed a pistol that will fit this magazine.. No official words, but you can't get the 25rd any more.. And Mossberg has sent out a letter.
