When I first purchased my rifle at the Gun Show I was told by the dealer that if I wanted to use it for hunting, I would need to purchase a 5 round magazine apart from the 30 magazine it came with. I have been told this by three dealers, both hunter uncles and other individuals who hunt often. BNH and myself were having a discussion on DNR regulations when I made the off hand comment about the maximum limit of ammunition a firearm can hold while hunting Deer in Wisconsin. He contested my statement and found myself at a loss. I have never actually read anywhere in the regulations a limit on ammo in a firearm sans water-foul three shells limit. I think misinformation has been spread regarding this aspect of hunting. But for the sake of discussion...
Can anyone make a cite to any DNR regulation or state lawthat limits ammo for anything other than water-foul?
Is it illegal to hunt deer (or any other animal)with a 30rd magazine in a firearm?
