Minnesota SF660 eliminates the shotgun zone for taking deer, allowing all legal firearms statewide.
Minnesota SF660 amends the state's game and fish laws by eliminating the designated shotgun zone for taking deer. This change allows all legal firearms to be used statewide during the regular firearms deer season. The bill repeals the previous statute that restricted firearm use to shotguns, single-slug shotgun shells, muzzle-loading long guns, and handguns within the shotgun use area. The new law permits hunters to use any legal firearm across the entire state, simplifying the regulations for deer hunting.
