Can I carry during any hunting season along with my weapon for hunting? Also can I carry on a Wma while hunting?

Yes, if you have a valid carry permit. However, the carry weapon may not be used in any way for hunting with the exception of the gun deer season if it is a legal caliber.

I will also add, you better check the specific WMA regulations..... or call the area manager where you're thinking of hunting/carrying.
Handguns are strictly prohibited on AEDC WMA....

Thanks! There are some "federal" WMAS that do not allow any carry.

I may be incorrect but to be used it also has to have legal ammo I believe. Non FMJ ammunition.

If the gun cannot and IS not going to be used for hunting in any way, why does the ammo have to meet the requirements for hunting ammo? Seems like a bad law to me.

For carry purposes, there is no regulation on the type of ammo. But, if it is going to be used for hunting during the gun deer season, the ammo cannot be fmj.
