No kidding
.45cal or larger for deer, pronghorn or lion. .50cal. or larger for elk, moose, bighorn,mtn.goat or bear.
No breech loaders muzzle loader only.
No scopes
Loose powder only
Projectile must be within .010" of bore diameter. No sabots
Patched round ball or conical non-jacketed projectile of lead or lead alloy
Equipped with an ignition system in which any portion of the cap is exposed or visible when the weapon is ****ed and ready to fire.

Well I guess that kind of limits things? So basically something like a traditional Hawkins Rifle?
