RE: .223
I agree muley69!
First of all readyfireaim . . . It SHOULD BE "ready . . .aim . . .fire!" You have to aim before you fire! My advice to you . . . save all the hunting money and go buy yourself a side of beef. You can't hunt big game anywhere with .223. Elk in Calif.? Yeah, but you have property in Colo.? Hunt elk there. Calif elk are Roosevelt and getting a license if you could find permission to hunt, would be extremely hard to draw (I suspect). My uncle was the last person I know to live and hunt in CA and he had trouble getting a deer license much less find somewhere to hunt them. I don't know why I'm even responding . . . |
RE: .223
At first I thought this was a joke. Or at least should be.
First off, a .223 is not a legal calibre for elk ANYWHERE! Unfortunately it is legal for deer in many states Nebraska and Texas I know for sure do as game4lunch suggests |

ORIGINAL: game4lunch You can't hunt big game anywhere with .223. ORIGINAL: Crittergitter First off, a .223 is not a legal calibre for elk ANYWHERE! .223 is legal for any game in Texas. Probably other states as well. The only restriction here is : White-tailed deer, mule deer, desert bighorn sheep, and pronghorn antelope may NOT be hunted with rimfire ammunition of any caliber. Also, under California law, I think they have the same rule for big game. The only restriction is it must be a centerfire cartridge with an expanding bullet. Here's a quote from their fish & game site: ยง353. Methods Authorized for Taking Big Game. (a) Except for the provisions of subsections 353(b) through (g), title 14, CCR, big game (as defined by section 350, title 14, CCR) may only be taken by rifles using centerfire cartridges with softnose or expanding bullets; bow and arrow (see section 354, title 14, CCR, for archery equipment regulations); or wheellock, matchlock, flintlock or percussion type, including "in-line" muzzleloading rifles using black powder or equivalent black powder substitute, including pellets, with single ball or bullet loaded from the muzzle and at least .40 caliber in designation. |

RE: .223
Elk, in Texas, are classified as an "exotic" species, which is non-native game that has been introduced from elsewhere. Others in this category include blackbuck, nilgai, red stag, gemsbok, oryx, etc., etc. There are NO regulations as to the firearms that can be used on exotic species, so LEGALLY, you could even use a .22 short. Obviously, this is not a MORAL or ETHICAL choice, and the ranches where these game might be hunted will have some say as to what cartridges can be used on their ranches.[/quote]
[/quote] Well, my bad. Thanks for the info. but like you point out "Obviously, this is not a MORAL or ETHICAL choice" |
