New York state allows you to hunt anything but migratory waterfowl with an 8ga.---Phesants, crows, rabbits, deer, bear, grouse etc. all require a porter to carry the gun. Turkeys do not.

You also are allowed to hunt bare ---in remote areas.

You should be able to use an 8 gauge with chamber mates for waterfowling anywhere in the US. If you've got 10 or 12 gauge shells in it then it's a 10 or 12 gauge no matter the bore size. I don't believe there's a warden in the US that would give you any trouble over that one. If you don't have 8 gauge shells on you then you aren't using an 8 gauge gun, it's just that simple.

I agree with Destry on that one. Of course, Destry and I are not generally "chambermate" kind of guys. We like the big bullets.

What Destry says is correct, however the State of Wisconsin regulation is miss-worded unintentionally and does not follow the Federal Regulation exactly so we are tying to switch the state verbiage to match the federal.
