Two firearms in the field or one?

[mmm...chicken]

Is it okay to bring both a .22 rifle (for grouse) and a moose calibre rifle out on a days hunt?

 

[doubleman]

Yes

 

[northwoodslivin]

not if you dont have a moose or bear tag... unless you can prove your going target shooting in the woods, which could be a tuffy.

Yes, this is one of the advantages of owning a combination gun or drilling, or even an insert that fires a handgun cartridge. Or a reduced load using a pistol bullet.

 

[marlin]

Only one loaded at any given time

Some places any rifle in excess of one must be cased

 

[Familyman]

aren't the one rifle rules only for duck hunting?

Here in BC you can carry as many rifles/shotguns that you want and it is very common to carry a small Chipmonk 22 rifle in your pack.

I have carried my 16.5" barreled T/C Contender carbine in 22LR along with my hunting rifle for years now.

I used the 22 quite bullets they didn't have the killing capabilities of LR but kept the noise down a lot.

Where??

What a stupid rule

 

[Wrong Way]

When I'm moose hunting I carry my M6 in my pack, but for deer and bear, I have shotshells for the .44 mag deerfield.

X2. I always have 3 guns with me when I'm in the bush.

While duck hunting you can only have ZERO rilfes, unless of course it is cased or disassembled.
