PA whitetails
Went on tghe Pennsylvania Game & Fish web site but can't seem to locate the info I'm looking for.
Is there a minimum caliber for deer hunting in PA ? Are semi-autos legal ? Thanks |
The last time I checked. semi auto are not legal and the minimum caliber is a .22 centerfire rifle. No rimfires.
|
thanks pats i looked all over that site but couldn't find it.

semi-autos are definitely not legal, but i believe as long as it is a centerfire you are good to go. Possibly has to be bigger than a .17
