Can you be in possession of two shotguns? One with shot and one with slugs? That would take care of it!
No for 2 reasons. The provision of the Shot no larget than #4 also makes carrying slugs a violation. It also doesn't work out because of how the seasons are scheduled which I didn't get into the specifics above.
I know this is getting a bit off topic but to answer Dave's question it works out like this. (I may have a few of the dates off but it's the same basic setup yearly)
Archery Deer/Turkey season runs specifically Sept 15-Nov 15, Nov 25-Jan-15
(The 10 day break is for Fall Firearms Deer season)
(If hunting Archery one cannot be in posession of a firearm)
Fall Firearms Turkey season runs the entire month of October
Fall Firearms Deer (Main season) runs Nov 15-Nov 25
(there are several special seasons that run between Nov 25-Dec 30,
black powder, Anterless only for select counties etc)
So to be legal if I want to take my shotgun out for Turkey in October I'm likely to miss an opportunity at a deer or two like that 8 pointer I had at 20 yrds out 2 years ago. I could just bring my bow but I feel like I have a better chance to take a turkey with the shotgun.
To get back on topic, while rifle's aren't legal here it would be nice if they were. I've had several opportunities where the Turkey stopped and/or saw me when they were just outside of Shotgun range. It's rather annoying to have a dozen or so at 55yrds out that just refuse to come any closer to get in range of my Shotgun. As for what I'd use given the choice, I'd probably grab my 30-30
