Sask range roads

If they didn't want us to shoot from the truck they should never have invented electric windows, precision elevation adjustment.

Only problem with electric windows is if they freeze up you can't go hunting.

if you actually get out of the truck to shoot you will be doing better then most hunters in sask. Just don't shoot down or across grid roads.

lmao...

There may also be different regulations between centerfire rifle and shotgun.

If I am driving down the highway and see coyote I shoot it if I have the chance. I also would only do it in an area I am familiar with so I know what my surrroundings are. If I am not breaking any laws, I have nothing to worry about

Isn't that why you leave the windows open and park in the quonset?

Always know your target and beyond. Not sure how that's possible while road hunting.

you can see the other end of the road you are travelling on here in sask.
also on a good day the curvature of the earth,that should be classed as 'beyond'

That has more to do with where a bullet stops than where it started.

Is it actually legal to shoot from a vehicle in Saskatchewan or are you guys just goofing around? Here in BC if a CO stops by and you have leaned your loaded gun against your truck, while you get out your pack or something, your getting charged. If a CO caught you shooting at a deer from your truck, you would be loosing your truck and your rifle.

Its a big no no here too. I think alot of people still do it though

 

[TheTooner]

The regulations are very clear, no shooting in the vehicle, (and no loaded firearms in the vehicle precludes shooting in the vehicle anyway.) One hears of people charged for shooting using the vehicle for a rest, and that's not always with the vehicle still on the road. It hasn't happened to me, just heard of it.

I don't go out intending to "road hunt" but in some of the very open country we have, you can be driving to where you intend to get out on foot and an opportunity presents en route. I feel confident that if I get out and cross the ditch before shooting I am far enough away from the road to satisfy the COs.
