Round balls kill fine. They need to out law those guys shooting deer with .22 caliber rifles. Now the thing about letting hunters use a scope on their ML'er... Im against that. It takes to much tradition away. The inline ML already has taken some tradition away but come on, alot of the states that allow you to use a scope are back east where if you miss, your bullet could end up in someones house or in someone.
