.22 For Duck Hunting
Would a .22 work for ducks on the ground? Because on the farm the only time I see ducks is when they are on the ground. I don't have time for a blind and all that would a .22 bullet to the head work.

Sorry...It's illegal to shoot ducks or geese with a rifle or pistol..
That's a Federal reg... |
RE: .22 For Duck Hunting
Yes, a .22 will work for ducks, especially a head shot. But don't get caught doing it !! It' a Federal offense and you will loose your gun, hunting rights and pay a hefty fine to boot.

Absolutely not!
http://www.kctv5.com/news/14872351/detail.html AMERICUS, Kan. -- An Emporia State University freshman died during the weekend after being shot by someone in a passing vehicle while he was hunting for geese. Beau Arndt, 18, of Americus, and two friends had placed several dozen goose decoys in a farm field Saturday and were lying in the snow waiting for incoming birds, according to the Lyon County Sheriff's Department. Arndt's companions told police that a pickup truck stopped along a nearby road and fired a rifle shot into the decoys, but hit Arndt instead and then left the scene. Shooting waterfowl with a rifle is illegal in Kansas, as is shooting from inside a vehicle or onto someone's property without permission. This is only example of a few in recent years where hunters have been killed by idiots shooting at decoys with rifles. Another involved an Avery Watefowl Pro Staffer killed by a .22 bullet which hit him above the eye. The shooter was also shooting at goose decoys. Not saying you're an idiot, but this is why it is dangerous. |

It was Josh Ledger from Avery's prostaff. It didnt kill him right off either. He was put on life support and his family had to make the final decision. I cant begin to imagine how that must feel. No single projectile weapon may be used in taking wildfowl in the state of NC is how the regs are written.
