Thanks for the update.
It has been a few years since I read the deer hunting manual.
I think they changed that rule or I just plain remembered it wrong.
Luckily I have a 4" 624 and a 4" 629-2 MR that is the one I would carry now I know the recent law.
They are practically identical except for the chambering.
Sadly my arthritis is getting bad enough that my still hunting days may be over.
I have had to curtail my long distance motorcycle riding as well.
