Thanks, Cupo,

If that's the case, then it seems to me that for, what?, $22 or so?, that muzzleloaders have access to longer seasons and greater geographic areas to hunt than do the modern-only hunters.

As I stated above, I don't rifle hunt anymore, so it's no skin off my nose either way, but am I missing something here?

It looks to me that muzzleloaders might be looking for exclusive hunting opportunities, rather than more hunting opportunities, as the thread began focusing on?

Fish on...

Todd.
