Most fun gun to hunt deer?

Yes, it uses Glock mags, so they hold 10, I never read far enough into the regs or tried to "interpret" them to see if I could put ten in it. I put 5 in just to make sure I was OK if I got stopped, which it turns out I did, and have an extra mag in my pocket to show my intent. And who knows if the CO would know the rules or be willing to accept that explanation. Plus, if I need more then 5, I shouldnt be taking the shot. I have set a person limit of 50 yards with it too. Although I think 100 is possible, I dont think I'm good enough to do it at that range with that gun

Well, no worries on using a full magazine if you want. BC doesn't have any magazine restrictions for hunting with a rifle. Only shotguns with shot, mag needs to be plugged so you can only have 2+1 shells in it. Shotguns with slugs have no magazine restrictions.

Federal regulations for magazine capacities still apply, of course.

Thanks, good to know I guess. I was always into duck hunting from an early age and remember dad plugging all the shot guns and talking about mag restrictions so I just assumed 5 was law and have stuck with it. But good info none the less :)
 
No a PTRS would be better 14.5 mm is 2x stronger then .50bmg although you can't get sp but would you really need it. But seriously a lever action in either .30-30 or .44 mag would be fun .45-70 wouldn't be to bad either, might be overkill but you defiantly wouldn't have to worry about bears with that.
 
It probably won't help OP, but my absolute favourite rifle to hunt with is my Garand.

Oh I should also clarify, when hunting with the Sub2000, make sure you only load 5 rounds in th emag and have at least one other mag in a pocket with 5 rounds in it to have some evidence of following the rules. It worked for me here but probably not in Ont

In Alberta that will get you busted, semi-auto rifles are limited to 5, period.

Doesn't it use pistol magazines? So you could load 10 rounds in it if you wish, couldn't you?

Depends on the game regs where moosedude is hunting.

Last year was my Marlin 45-70. It worked. This year I'm taking it and my Rossi Ranch Hand in .45LC. Little bit of practice and I can get it on target as quick as a rifle. Muscle memory I guess it's called.
 
For me it's my win 94 wrangler with 16" barrel and large loop lever in 32 win spl.
