thegunsmith2506 Report post Posted August 16, 2010 I think they changed it a few years back. It use to be 3 was all you could have for anyting you were shotgunning. Now I think its 5. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ernesto C Report post Posted August 16, 2010 I know is 3 for doves and 5 for quail, but......for predators, for coyotes, how many can you put in your shot gun? Ernesto C Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
huntingfool Report post Posted August 16, 2010 5, same as quail. You only have to have your plug in for migratory birds and waterfowl I believe. But I know you don't need it for predators. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thegunsmith2506 Report post Posted August 16, 2010 I can only get 4, 3-1/2's in mine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ernesto C Report post Posted August 16, 2010 The reason I asked is because I watched this video today, look carefully....the guy shot 5 rounds at a coyote with his shotgun. That got me thinking.... Ernesto C Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NRS Report post Posted August 16, 2010 Looks like that shooter only fired 3 rounds, someone else was also shooting. You can hear him rack the shotgun 3 times but there is not a boom after the last one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ernesto C Report post Posted August 16, 2010 NRS, Maybe I should say "look and listen" carefully! I know there is two guys shooting but the guy next to the camera makes 5 shots. I guess I will keep using 3 rounds just to be safe Ernesto C Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

huntingfool Report post Posted August 17, 2010 It's in the regs on page 118 under legal methods of take. No 2-shot magazine capacity for furbearing/predator species. Only for migratory birds. Load up 5+1 and whack 'em. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
