# Suppressed (silencers) Firearms: Is it legal to hunt with a suppressed firearm?
That depends. The short answer is Yes…..if the hunter possesses a class III federal firearms license to own such devices. The use of a suppressed firearm (silencers) for hunting is illegal for anyone that does not possess such a federal license.
Wisconsin law does not prohibit the use of a class three suppressed weapon for hunting. Federal Law controls the legal possession and use of a class three suppressed weapon. The individual and weapon must have proper verification and certification of compliance from the Department of the Treasury, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. If the individual complies with all requirements of Wisconsin law, Wisconsin hunting regulations and Federal Law he may hunt with a class three suppressed weapon.

I won't call the warden after all. I haven't met him personally yet and he just might take a question like that the wrong way.
As for long range hunting rifles, I have a M700 in 8mm mag but it kicks too much for my liking. I plan on having another one built in the same caliber, hopefully from GA. I pretty much have all the parts except for the barrel. The end product should be considerably heavier but I'll have the barrel set up for a brake if I decide I need it. Depending on my tax situation, I may get started on it after the first of the year.
