      No cap & ball for Deer?

      Hmmm... A LONG stem funnel for the powder, and a stout ramrod. :):

      No cap & ball for Deer?

      Your response is to insult my intelligence? I understood the rules the first time around: I sought clarification because they are blatantly ridiculous.

      concealed 9mm or .380

      I'm sure that, like any reasonable man, you have considered your options. What unique scenario do you find yourself in where the small of the back is the best option? Do you drive much? You will find your gun choices limited by the few SOTB holsters on the market.

      No cap & ball for Deer?

      The Exact quote from the regs is as follows: "A muzzleloading firearm must be capable of being loaded from the muzzle, including both powder and bullet." Cap and ball pistols and rifles load from the cylinder, not the muzzle. I wouldn't THINK anyone would be annal enough to bust you for using...

      No cap & ball for Deer?

      Cap & ball guns are not technically "muzzle loaders" because the ball and powder are loaded from the front of they cylinder, not the muzzle of the gun.... The regs don't forbid cap and balls by name, but the requirement that the ball and powder be loaded from the muzzle basically kills them...

      No cap & ball for Deer?

      If I'm reading the regs right, the "must be capable of loading ball and powder from the muzzle" line basically excludes a Cap and Ball gun correct? It sounds like, even if a particular BP gun meets all of the caliber and barrel length requirements, it can be ruled "illegal" by how the ball in...

      Clays / wing-shooting in Northern Indiana?

      I'm not much of a shotgun guy, but I like to dabble with clay games and upland wingshooting. I seem to have hit a wall. I don't have much instruction, as nobody I know hunts upland birds or shoots any clay games, so I have had to teach myself. I used to do ok (about 80%) with a 12 guage...

      .22LR Rifle with longest bolt throw

      Bolt throw is determined by action length. The only way to get a rimfire with the same bolt throw as a center is to convert a center to rimfire - The only rifle I know of that can be converted back and for in such a way (old trainers are basically permanent) is the Blaser Pro Hunter.... Its...

      What was your first shotgun?

      First ever shotgun was a Mossberg 500E, .410 field - given to me at a young age. First shogun I purchased for myself was a 20 gauge H&R Pardner - purchased NIB from a friend for $45.

      NRC letter to Indiana Deer Hunters

      To be fair, I've only met a few serious bow hunters.... But they were all 100% convinced that THEY posesed far more skill, cunning, and prowes than gun hunters. THEY were true hunters, and everyone else was just killing deer - THEY were Gods gift to deer, and the deer herd would wither without...
