Summary
Use of shotguns. Eliminates the requirement of having
only a three-shell capacity in the magazine and chamber when hunting
nonmigratory game but retains this requirement for hunting migratory game birds,
as this limitation is required by federal law. The bill also gives the Board
the discretion to remove the three-shell limitation, thereby allowing the Board
the flexibility to respond to any easing of the federal limitation on shell
capacity for hunting migratory game birds.
