Actually - anyone that said that Pennsylvania's rifle season is only 2 weeks long is wrong.
Here is why
First you have a Special Antlerless Deer season - October 21 - 23rd
Jr / SR license holders and Disabled persons permit, any Pennsylvania resident actively serving in the US Armed Forces - including the US Coast Guard. I would imagine that if you worked for the Border Patrol that they would also look the other way on that one.
Muzzleloader antlerless - October 16 - 23
Regular Firearms Deer season - November 29 - December 11
Then you have a antlerless deer season in area's - 2B, 5C, 5D
December 27 - January 29
Flintlock Muzzleloader season December 27 -January 15 in most zones and December 27 - January 29 in the special areas listed above. 2B, 5C, 5D.
My way of thinking - that gives you almost 2 months worth of rifle hunting.
We get 12 days in our gerneral firearms season. Two weeks minus two Sundays.
Can't count muzzleloader because all the other states have seasons for that, too. Doe-only in special regs is different all-together.
90% of hunters in PA can hunt with their 30-06 12 days out of the year. Because of work, most guys only get out 3 of those days.
