I suspect a Minnesota resident taking a gun into Wisconsin and killing 6 residents would warrant federal attention.
What an absolute tragedy.

It's not illegal to transport a firearm across state lines, in fact it's specifically protected by federal law. If the SKS were illegal for hunting in WI, it would still be a state matter. Murder, expect on federal enclaves (like a military base) or in the commission of a federal crime, is still a state matter.
