Ruger pcc capacity question?

No different than a sub2000 using Glock17 pistol mags or Kriss Vector using Glock21 pistol mags. The law is based on what the magazine was designed for (a pistol), not what it can fit in.... It's a Canadian bonus if your pistol mags fit into any of your rifles....

Ok good, thanks! , but, now, I think about the Buttler Creek 30rd 10/22 mags, made since 20years for the 10/22 but, can now fit in the BX25. But they are now prohibited..... Kind of hard to figure the "logic" in the law (if there's any...)
Don't try to find logic in our firearm laws. There is none.
Logic would dictate that wilderness handgun carry would be no different than wilderness rifle carry, but one is done every day and one would land you in prison.

Magazine capacity
Some large-capacity magazines are prohibited regardless of the class of firearm. As a general rule, the maximum magazine capacity is:
5 cartridges for most magazines designed for a semi-automatic centre-fire, long gun
10 cartridges for most handgun magazines
A large-capacity magazine is not prohibited if it has been permanently altered so that it cannot hold more than the number of cartridges allowed by law. Acceptable ways to alter a magazine are set out in the Criminal Code Regulations.
There is no limit to the magazine capacity for semi-automatic, rim-fire long guns, or for other long guns that are not semi-automatics, with some exceptions.
