inline during reg season

does anyone in pa. know for sure if using a inline in reg. gun season is legal.just heard a story of a guy getting fined for using one.
from what i read in the digest it says muzzleloading long gun of 44 cal. or larger is legal.so how would you take that.

If you are talking about the REGULAR deer season, which is the Monday following Thanksgiving and runs for two weeks, I feel certain that any rifle of any type, as long as it is not a rimfire, is a legal weapon. This is also to include bows, compound and crossbows. Muzzleloaders are included also. Whether they have to be .44 cal. or larger in this season is a question. I do believe firmly that any type of ignition is permitted at this time. Someone please correct me if I am wrong.

got email back from game commission today yes they are legal during that time.just got to find out the real reason this guy got fined.probaly turn out he used it during flintlock season is my guess at this time.

I heard about that guy. He shot a mountain lion that was feeding a Sasquatch.And he had baited the Sasquatch without a permit.

The fine was 1500.00 for hunting PA mountain lions over bait.

Next time look in the Enquirer. [
