I called the Game&Fish today and verified that Wyoming now allows 22 CF's for deer and antelope.

The Schofield Kid: Yeah, well, I guess they had it coming.

That's surprising they'd let those flatlanders come out and shoot those girlie guns at deer and goats... They must be trying to soften the out of state license fee increase... LOL

Could be, but I'm glad they did... wink

I think this leaves Colorado as the only holdout left in the mountains that don't allow them for deer and goats.

Geeeez. The guys down here have a hard time with them on our smallish southern whitetails. A few of these boys have been using dogs to help with the tracking. This has helped some.

I've used them a while now and had no problems. That said I'm talking smaller big game out to 200 yards or so.

I know the 243, 260 and 25-06 are staying home this year for our annual hunt, replaced by a 223, 22-250 and a 223 wssm...

To be honest I have not taken a buck antelope since 2005, I can only hang so many heads on the wall. I just get doe tags now for the fun of the hunt.

I will have to get a buck tag this year however as my oldest son will be 12 this season...

Obviously hunters in NC cannot shoot for [bleep]. Try shooting them small southern deer in the front half.

NM has a .243 minimum too.

Centerfire rifle or handgun has been the requirement for deer & antelope in NM for several years, now. 24 cal minimum applies to elk.
That said - I'm NOT going after antelope or deer with my 17 Rem, 22 K-Hornet, or my 204 Ruger!

Could be they realize that there has been an advance in bullet technology, caliber restrictions are stupid to begin with, and hunters are responsible enough to hunt with a cartridge they feel is effective. wink
