Indiana hunters, let's hear your opinion.
Well, it passed.Indiana deer hunters can now hunt with a rifle that fires a pistol cartridge. Here's a section from the Indiana DNR website:
The rifle must fire a cartridge that meets the following specifications:
[ul][ul][*]A) fire a bullet of three hundred fifty-seven thousandths of an inch (.357) diameter or larger;[*](B) have a minimum case length of one and sixteen hundredths (1.16) inches; and[*](C) have a maximum case length of one and six hundred twenty-five thousandths (1.625) inches.

Some cartridges that will be legal include the following:
[ul][ul][*].357 Magnum[*].38-40 Winchester[*].41 Magnum[*].41 Special[*].44 Magnum[*].44 Special[*].44-.40 Winchester[*].45 Colt[*].454 Casull[*].480 Ruger[*].475 Linebaugh[*].50 Action Express[*].500 S&W [/ul][/ul]
What do y'all think?
Will it change the way you hunt?
Will you use a rifle?
With our M/L's that fire 200+ yards, will people even grab a <100 Yard rifle?
I'm not trying to start an argument, I just want to hear your opinions.
Let's hear it! Fire away!
