What is the maximum lawful magazine capacity for a semi-automatic rifle in South Dakota when hunting big game?

  1. There is no maximum

  2. 10 rounds

  3. 5 rounds

  4. 20 rounds

The correct answer is: 5 rounds

In South Dakota, when hunting big game, the maximum lawful magazine capacity for a semi-automatic rifle is restricted to 5 rounds. This limitation is in place to promote fair chase and ethical hunting practices. It helps ensure that hunters have a reasonable limit on the number of shots they can take, thereby reducing the risk of overharvesting or unsporting behavior.
