[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2703027, member: 313"] "Muzzleloading" has become too broad of a term and doesn't necessarily fit with the original intent of "muzzleloading" or "primitive arms" seasons. IMO, they should have a primitive arms season, and just decide how primitive they want the firearms (or other devices) to be. Every other modern concoction should be allowed during the regular firearms season so that there is a distinction between the two seasons. Allowing smokeless muzzleloaders which are capable of shooting several hundreds of yards just blurs the distinction and causes the controversy. If the game commission allows a special (and often early) season for a limited range device, then they need to better control the parameters. I like hunting with my muzzleloader and use a scope and BH substitutes but if the rules limited the season to open sights and black powder, I'd be fine with that. It puts everyone hunting that nseason on an equal footing. Just my thoughts and I'm sure that some will disagree. [/QUOTE]
