Why can't you use the 10 round at mags you have ?
The barrel looks thicker on this model. Can anybody confirm?
I can use 10 rounders ... but this is an NR varmint rifle. Gonna have to get a few 5 rounders if I want to use it anywhere outside of a range ...
You sure about that? We have the crapyest wildlife regs in Canada , but I'm sure we can use our 10 rnd mags.I can use 10 rounders ... but this is an NR varmint rifle. Gonna have to get a few 5 rounders if I want to use it anywhere outside of a range ...

I didn't say I hunted at allHunting with 10 rounds of 5.56 in your mag???? Good luck buddy ...
It's 5 centre fire rounds locally here in Ontario ... free free to ask a local RCMP Officer ... I may know a few ...![]()

No, it does not, sorry if I'm a slow learner, but where in the hunting regs does it say you must only use a 5 rnd mag for hunting? Any legal mag should be ok . The only thing mentioned in our NL hunting regulations , regarding ammo limits , is shotgun, which is 3. No mention of center fire at all. Lar and bro mags are not restricted and are considered legal( here anyway). I just scanned through ontarios hunting regs and couldn't find anything in center fire mag limits. And if you can legally hunt with 7 rnds of 30 30 , in Ontario , which I did with a couple of OPP officers , why can't you legally hunt with 10 rnd of .223 in your legal 10 rnd mags?You are confused. I DO shoot my 50 beo's and LAR-15 mags at the range all the time. I'm talking about HUNTING ... for which a 5 round centre fire magazine is required.
No 10 round centre fire mags for HUNTING in Ontario or 14 round 5.56 in a 50 beowulf ... period.
I can use the 10 rounders at the range ... but I shoot my LAR-15 pistol mostly when I'm there since I literally can't shoot it anywhere else ... even on private property. It's restricted ...
I can have 5 rounds of 5.56 in a Non-restricted Centre Fire rifle while HUNTING in Ontario. (rim fire is still unlimited I believe)
I can have 10 rounds of 5.56 in an LAR pistol mag in any rifle that will except it while shooting at a CFO approved range (I hear rumblings that the RCMP is trying to change this as we speak).
Good luck if an Ontario Conservation Officer catches you with 10 centre fire rounds in your hunting rifle while out hunting in Ontario. I doubt very much that you will get the either the rifle or the magazine back. Their powers are very broad ...
Many assume that because LAR-15 mags and 50 Beo mags can be legally used in any firearm that will accept them that one can use them anywhere you please ... wrong. Both the CFO and local hunting rules still apply i.e. you still can't hunt at night LAR-15 mags or not. And ... you are still limited to how many rounds your local bylaws will permit in any rifle while hunting even if you own a legal LAR-15 mag in Ontario ...
Hope this clears that up.
I read your regs and couldn't find it , not saying your wrong , just saying I couldn't find it in your regs is all. And I know where you said you live.Yes. You are a slow learner. I live in ONTARIO. I believe that you live in NL where you CAN use your 10 round mags for hunting. Please READ my response ... and yes it is 5 rounds semi-auto center fire limited in ONTARIO for my KELTEC SU16 Predator ... lol ...![]()
so it's the action that dictates the cartridgelimit? Well ya learn something new everyday. I'd say you would need 20% of a 5 rnd 9mm mag to kill a deer at 25 yards or lessAs a side note, I have a 30-30 and the tube does indeed mag hold 6 30-30... but it's a MANUAL action ... my SU-16 predator is a huge upgrade ...
I'm not allowed to hunt dear with .223 because it's too small of a projectile.
I also have a Kel tec sub 2000. Because 9mm great than .243 in diameter I am actually allowed to hunt dear with it LOL!!! But since I am only allowed 5 centre fire 9mm rounds in the mag when hunting ...
Think about how many 5 round mags of 9mm I'd have to put in a deer to kill it humanely???
