You need to be specific with what animal your hunting. Also which .22 are you using because there are over 100 different types ranging from 22 CB all the way to the 22 eargesplitten loudenboomer.
.22 for small game, rifle such as 30-30 or 30.06 for bigger game, shotgun for birds.
A .22 air rifle can be used to hunt small game such as rabbits, squirrels, and birds. It is important to check local hunting regulations and use appropriate ammunition for ethical and humane hunting.
It all depends on what you are hunting. I would not use a 50 cal rifle to hunt squirrels but I would use it to hunt Elk. I would not use a .22 cal to hunt elephants but may use it to hunt small game. That's why there are so many different types of guns.
Everything from mice to elephants has been killed with a 22. You will need to get a copy of your state's hunting regulations to see what is LEGAL to hunt with a 22 LR.
Deer hunting with a .22 is illegal in most states, including California. It's too small a rifle to use on deer, you're better off using it for shooting squirrels, game birds and pigeons.
Maybe. They may be used to take small game, but not deer. They may not be used to hunt migratory birds, such as dove, ducks, or geese. Semi-automatic rifles may not be used. So if you want to squirrel hunt with a bolt action .22, you should be legal.
Small game can be hunted with the 22LR and 22 Magnum.
Yes. Have you ever tried duck? Grouse tastes very similar to duck. If you have a small game hunting license, then you can hunt grouse with a 22 rifle.
No one answer, since there is no one law in all places. In general, in most areas, you may not bird hunt with a rifle, shotguns used for birds may only hold 3 shells, and small rifles (like a .22) cannot be used for big game (deer, bear, etc).
For small game hunting, I think so.
Rodents and small game.
