Checking out the airgun hunting map. Tennessee let's you hunt almost anything that moves with an airgun. 25 & SMALLER or 35 & LARGER!

What!?!? I was looking to move there. AND shoot 30 cal. I could understand 35 cal and bigger for larger animals, - deer , hog , etc but no 30 cal for small pig , hog or raccoon, porcupine size stuff?

TN has came a long way in the last 7 years with the airgun hunting laws. As soon as they allow the .30cal it will give me a reason to buy another FX.

This year they changed smaller game (furbearers) to allow 35 cal and above airguns, but still no .30cal. It was 25cal and below for animals such as bobcats and coyotes.

We really don’t have that much game where a .30 would be needed, but they should legalize it for small game. We don’t have porcupine or small hogs here. We have the large strain of boar and I sure wouldn’t want to shoot one that’s 250 pounds or more with a .30 cal airgun. A .25 will do fine for raccoons and even coyotes. Are you getting any closer to moving?

Fellas, Rangur 1, if I may, Tennessee has a lot going for it airgun wise. The glass is way more than half full.
FT matches twice a month in middle Tennessee
And the limit on squirrel is 10 a day, season starts August 23(?) and ends the Feb. 28 -
So, don't let the .30 cal issue be a deal breaker lol
my back yard
At a WMA 15 minutes from the house
Who knows, maybe SOMEDAY, you could utilize your .30, but COME ON man!!

Man reading through those eregulations was a chore.
I think a call to the game warden would be in order to better explain the ways and means of taking animals. There are to many holes in what I just read.
I wonder if you have a specific page on the air rifles rules, like this.
