Squirrel Hunting

[gfdeputy2]

Looking to do some Squirrel hunting when we head out to NY for our annual archey deer season trip

Have a question

we will be bringing out our 10/22's I know the BX-25 Mags are illegal I am guessing the standard 10 rounds are too

SO can I plug the mag or do I need to purchase 5 rounders

what do you guys who have a 10/22 or other semi's do

if i under stand right u should be good with ten round mags just load up with 7 shoots

Thanks I wasn't sure if I could do that would be great if we can

stinks if I have to buy a few 5 round mags as I have no other use for them

Pretty sure your fine with 7 in the 10, I have a tube fed marlin 60 and I load 15 in that sucker.

10 rnd mag is perfectly legal. You're only allowed 6 squirrels, so you if you load the magazine with 7 rnds and use one as a sighter you're good to go.

I'm pretty sure center fire rounds do not fall into safe act rules...check online tho

The safe act makes no distinction between rimfire and centerfire ammunition.

The thumbhole stock on my target 10/22 made it an 'assault' weapon.

If your going west of Rochester your fine with 10

However a marlin 60 thumbhole is legal because the magazine is not detachable
