twfowler,

re: technically that isn't a ban of .223 or .22 ammo. That's what had me confused.

Sorry about the confusion, I never meant the ammo itself was banned, I meant for hunting big game it's illegal.

As for the cougar, you know when they say .22 they don't mean a rimfire .22. They mean a .223 or a .22-250 center fire round. No dogs allowed in Washington for cougar hunts so you may just need the range of the .22-250 just to reach out and touch a cougar if you ever even see one at all.

Only wild cougar I've ever seen was in Pend Oreille, sauntering across a highway behind a cop directing traffic. We kept pointing to get the cops attention, boy was he surprised when he finally turned around to look at what we were frantically pointing at. That cat is a regular around there, my uncle now carries a handgun on his morning runs as a result of a few close encounters with that cat and a black bear on his back porch one morning.
