RE: 30 cal Ruger
Personally I wouldn' t shoot anything bigger than a coyote with it and then only at close range. It just doesn' t have the energy needed for deer in my opinion. As for what state, you will have to check your local regs.

RE: 30 cal Ruger
jerseyhunter, I wouldn' t recommend it for hogs. If you can get close enough and place the shot right behind the ear it should be enough. I suggest though make sure of your shot and have a tree close by for your escape route in case you screw up. LOL. A friend has shot probably well over a 100 hogs at his uncles big cattle ranch in SW Florida. 99% of the time he used a Model 94 22mag.We' ve butchered several using a 22 short. Use your own judgement.
