Re: When are semi autos legal for small game?
I dunno about your interpretation. Technically, it says .22 OR LESS, and .223 is three thousandths larger than .22
Would the PGS have an issue with those three thousandths?
In any event, without the note as mentioned in my previous post, the actual language of the guideline mentions “rimfire,” .223 would be disallowed as it’s obviously centerfired.

Re: When are semi autos legal for small game?
the book states no caliber restrictions for groundhogs, so you can use .223, .308, .458, etc

Re: When are semi autos legal for small game?
While your statement is correct in a general mathematical sense it is not generally in a regulatory sense.
In the regs, small game references .22 caliber or smaller RIMFIRE. .223 Remington is centerfire.
There is however an exception for woodchucks. There are no caliber restrictions on woodchucks.

The Savage 17HMR semiauto is incredible. No need for anything else on a groundhog
