gAme commission sets
future came regulations
It has long been recognized
that as a conservative measure
that certain low-powered inef
fective caliber rifles should be
prohibited for the taking of big
game. The Oregon State Game
commission realizes that more
stringent regulations are not in I
order until sporting arms again
become more readily available
to- the public, but to afford the
public an opportunity to purchase
rifles in keeping with future reg- j
ulations, the game commission is
announcing these future regula
tions at this time. It is to be
emphasized that the proposals
will not become effective until
some future date wnen rifles are
easily available.
The following proposed eeula-
tions have been formulated with
the aid of the Sporting Arms and
Ammunition Manufacturers' In
stitute of New York.
Lawful rifle calibers for the
taking of deer should be those
with a caliber designation of 23
or larger, and developing. 975 foot
pounds or more of energy at 100
yards. Lawful calibers for the
taking of antelope andor elk
should be those With a caliber
designation of 25 or larger, and
