Any rimfire, no 3 shot restriction.

From the regs, p. 10 -

One may hunt game birds or crows:

■ With shotguns no larger than 10 gauge.
■ With recurve, long and compound
bows; hawk or falcon.


It is prohibited to hunt game birds or
crows:

■ With rifles or handguns. EXCEPTION:
Forest grouse can be hunted with any
rimfire firearm.

■ With a shotgun that can hold more
than three shells.
■ With any shot larger than BB except for
steel shot no larger than F. Exception:
No shot larger than No. 2 or smaller
than No. 6 may be used for wild turkey.
Tracer shells may not be used to hunt
game birds.
