I don't know if it's still the case, but it used to be the rule that
you can't even carry a long gun which WOULD be used for hunting a
species that's out of season. This didn't apply to carrying a
rifle/shotgun to the range, but to areas normally used for hunting.

Just during deer season, and .22 rimfire is still OK

You mean, you can't carry a rifle in areas where only shotgun is allowed? I
thought it said NO long gun was allowed when NOTHING was in season. So, in
other words, you could not carry a rifle into the Adirondacks for bear
protection, unless bear happened to be in season.
