"Auto-loading firearm
(A firearm which reloads itself after each shot and requires a separate trigger pull for each shot.)
It is unlawful to hunt with or possess for hunting any auto-loading firearm which has a magazine capacity of more than 5 cartridges (plus 1 in the chamber for a total of 6), unless the magazine has been permanently altered to contain not more than 5 cartridges. (Note: This provision does not apply to .22 caliber rimfire guns or to auto-loading pistols with barrel lengths of less than 8 inches.)"

With regard to shooting off a bench, I'm thinking he meant other than hunting. Unless you're stacking sand bags, those 30-rounders would be a tough fit.
That explains the interest in .204 Ruger. NH night hunting season starts January 1st; in NH the rules are slightly different; lights and bait are OK, and in towns with firearm deer restrictions rifles must be .22 rimfire for night hunting.
Along with what Shmittey said about lubricant, there are the usual concerns about keeping the barrel clear. With rimfire, be careful in ammo selection -- the primer compound in some brands is unreliable in the cold.

If you don't like the 4-16 I'll trade you my 3-12.

What I would really like to find is something like 2x-4x 30mm body and primary, under $200. I don't need super zoom, 4x is about max, but would prefer the smaller size of 30mm max "bell" and the 30mm body would allow maximum light through for dawn/dusk shots.

That would work well - there are other similar products for temp camo on firearms, too.
Or, paracord.
This is what Im doing for camo:

I swapped my Nikon Prostaff Shotgun Hunter (2-7x32 Nikoplex) onto my carbine AR, with cheap Weaver rings on risers. There's room to reach the charging handle, but I haven't used it while wearing gloves.

Just picked up a 10/22 takedown for the PM hunting. I'm just about ready to get out in the woods but I never got any varmint ammo before all hell broke loose... Anyone willing to part with 3 boxes?
I've got a stripped receiver due in, and am thinking of topping it with a .204 Ruger upper. Any suggestions? I don't need to break the bank on this, as it won't be a range gun and shots will be under 200 yds.
Leave the rimfire at home. If you want to night hunt, bring a shotgun.
Sounds good. Remember, no artificial lighting, so bright optics are key.
Barrel and bolt head.. All other parts standard ar.
This one uses the same bolt head:

Here's some more shotgun info:

Of course, I can't find any of this ammo in 2 3/4 shells.

I have the Shilien barrel below and must say it is a true performer.

I was looking at that one, seems to be the only one that comes with a bolt... I was talking with White Oak and I think I am going that route... Though .20 practical would make my life way easier, seems to be made out of Unubtainium ![[frown]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/003.gif "Frown [frown]")
