Correct, on private land.
Public land rules vary.

Yes. However, remember that on Jan. 12-13 there will be a Young Sportsman deer hunt where the only person's legal to use centerfire weapons will be the legal Young Sportsman hunters.

And, Ruger is 100% correct. The regulations on WMAs varies, so you need to check on each WMA for what is legal.

SCN - What would it take to make the WMA ruling consistant across the board for all WMA's i.e. Centerfire for predators as a specific season on WMA, like LBL (February)? And if that aint gonna work can we get a concrete listing on WMA's without centerfire restrictions during non big game seasons. I live 5 minutes from Cheatham and have stopped hunting predators there with an anemic rimfire due to a couple of bad experiences. I would travel to other WMA's if i knew i would not be undergunned, and the TWRA Guide is sometimes hard for those of us educated in Mississippi to make heads or tails of.

I would love to hit the huge river bottoms of yahnali with my 22-250 or my 223 but watching a mile long field holding a 17 hmr is kinda intimidating .

I thought all wma were the same about the rimfire, what would the others be or how would they be listed?

Meeman-Shelby Forest in Shelby County, outside of Memphis (for example) does not allow any centerfire or rimfire weapons...just as an example.

It's archery/shotgun/MZ only during gun season. So like Ruger said - the particular WMA matters. Just open the guide and look up the name of the WMA you are considering going to.
