Are 5 round AR mags required for varmint hunting?

Kinda figured you were joking sniper. That's why I put in the meat joke in there.

Those big cats scare the doodoo outa me. They can stalk you for hours without you even knowing they're there.

As I understand it, when hunting mtn lions, most folks usually use dogs to tree the cats (which is why you hear about them getting shot in trees). Having plenty of dogs is the only way I'd want to pursue one of them.

I didn't realize you could use larger cap mags for predators.

Sweet! Thanks for the info!

I've been stalked by a mountain lion before. It is a hair raising experience.

you can only use hi cap mags for one predator, coyote.
the regs are unclear so 2 years go i went into the DOW and specifically asked if I could shoot a coyote with an AK and a 30 round mag, the woman at the counter had to go ask someone in the back...

I've asked an DOW officer in the field, and he couldn't give me an answer, just recited the paragraph from the big game booklet about having a 5 round limit when hunting for big game and it being OK to shoot coyotes w/o small game. Decided it wasn't worth a ticket from an officer in the field that didn't know.

Just thought I would throw this out there...
I emailed DOW with a similar question last year about capacity while performing any type of hunting.
Basically if you have a Colorado hunting license with a centerfire rifle - trust in 6.
If using a .22 it's what ever is the default MANUFACTURER'S capacity - which I believe every manufacturer defaults to 10 or less.

From DOW:
"...The maximum number of rounds in a semi auto is 6. If you have a magazine that could hold 10 you could not use
it even if you only put 6 in it. The idea is that more rounds could be
placed in the magazine.
... The requirement for .22 rim fire rifles is
what ever amount of rounds the magazine that comes with the rifle will
allow from the manufacture is the legal amount that can be placed into
the weapon. "
