Uh, the cartridges you listed ARE "handgun" cartridges being used in a rifle. There is no magical differentiation in the legal definition. They either meet the parameters and they are legally "handgun cartridges" (despite the fact that their use may be most prevalent in rifles), or they don't meet the parameters and they are not "handgun cartridges". The entire reason the cartridges you listed were developed and in use for hunting is BECAUSE they met the definition of handgun cartridges.
I am confused????? by your reply???? CB you do realise the BAN is for ALL Rifles on Public Land. Cartridges that previously met the length requirement of less than or equal to 1.8 inches are moot.
NO Rifles of ANY KIND may be used on Public Lands to HUNT DEER. Only shotguns, muzzleloaders & handguns may be used to hunt deer...............on public state or federal lands in INDIANA......................... Now that makes hunters with private land access able to use ANY Rifle .243 or greater because they pay more taxes and get more respect from lawmakers & the wonderful servants of the people of Indiana employees of the IDNR.................................LOL all the way to the license burning fires.............. Join me and let the powers that be know what you think of this imbalance of privilege ..........................
