Not so fast.

I'll figure this one out over the next few weeks. With waterfowl lead shot in possession is a no, no.

However, the turkey firearm rule specifically makes "taking" a bird illegal. I suspect that if I keep my .43 Mauser rifle bullet in my pocket I'm ok. So long as I don't shoot a bird with the rifle, I think I may be OK even with the bullet in the gun.

I'd rather have a ruling from the DNR in my pocket than argue with a GW though. I've actually never been checked while turkey hunting with my Sauer combination gun...Geo
