    The question: Where in Indiana can I hunt with .30-06 ammunition?

    To the best of my understanding of Indiana's hunting regulation, there is currently no place where I can use that caliber while hunting in Indiana.

    So, is there anywhere nearby where I could hunt with that caliber?
    I undersand I could go to Alaska to hunt for bear, moose, or elk, or possibly to one of the western states, or maybe Pennsylvania.

    Anyone have any suggestions or experience to point me in the right direction?

    Thanks, guys, for our very helpful replies.

    I guess this comes under the category of "ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer."

    I am assuming what they are saying is that they own and live on land where they can hunt from their front porches. I have a friend that owns a lot of land and we can hunt off of his front porch, though we use .308's instead of 30-06, but we could if we owned one.

    You can hunt on PRIVATE land with a .30-06.

    It's perfectly OK on public lands, too. Don't let the other dissuade you.

    The legality of your cartridge is kind of co-dependent upon both your quarry AND your location.

    It's 100% perfectly legal to hunt squirrel with on public land. It's verboten to hunt deer with it on public land.
