Missouri allows resident landowners to hunt small game with rimfire ammunition during deer season without a permit. As a purported landowner, LG knows or should know that deer may be taken by "Any legal method:...[including]"handgun or rifle firing centerfire ammunition" 3 CSR 10-7.431(C) The regs further provide that resident landowners do not need a deer permit to hunt deer on their land. There is no provision for anyone to hunt deer with rimfire rifles.
Missouri has a proud tradition of responsible gun ownership and land stewardship. Since the 1930's, the Missouri Department of Conservation has been at the vangard of promoting habitat and wild game restoration and restoring hunting privileges as game such as deer and turkey became re-established in sufficient numbers.
