I never cease to be amazed by bureaucratic insanity. Was just looking up the legality of killing beavers with PCPs here in New Mexico. No Problemo as long as it’s at least .22 cal. For that matter any furbearer is legal with a .22 cal “compressed air gun”. This specifically includes cougars.
I can’t hunt a turkey or any big game period with any caliber PCP. But I can shoot an up to 200 pound cat that might not appreciate it if I miss his vitals and just poke a small hole in him with a .22. Nah!
Those clowns in Santa Fe need to Re-Check that regulation and at the same time get real on Big Game Airgun hunting overall.
