So the last post I made is indeed incorrect. No pistol grip shotguns with rifled slugs are permitted, unless it's bear season or some other big game at close range. Hope this clears things up!

Interesting. I hunt right near that station, just before it turns into Provincial park proper. Since I can hunt in that area, I wouldn't have thought anything of going into it in the off season for some sighting in or target practice... Now you are saying that would be illegal? Good to know...
As for the proportionality point, are there really regs to cover that??? Imean, is there an upper limit to what you can use on a coyote???? legally?
