Well its all part of the NEW Conceal Carry Law that caused all of it. Definitions what is considered a longgun cased and or uncased as well as what the CC law impacts caused it.
You can thank the lawyers for that. Nothing is simple or as nice as the nice paraphrase you wrote MC..

Blame the Concealed carry laws?
That is ridiculous!
The concealed carry has nothing to do with long guns! Even an idiot knows what a long gun is, don't they? We need less lawyers and more laws wrote so as the hunter don't need to be a scholar to interpret the mumble jumble the DNR puts in their hunting regulations.
The long gun laws are there because of our DNR writing tickets for frivolous violations, ie;
hunting from a hay wagon, leaning your gun against your car (while warming up), target shooting over the bed of one's truck, using a case that the zipper won't close all the way. The DNR rules with a (IRON FIST), and common sense is lost. They like to confuse hunters so as they can write tickets.
It is as simple as what I said; Don't have a loaded long gun in a vehicle. You
may have a unloaded long gun, in, on, under, in a window gun rack, drive down the road (with it uncased), and on the tailgate of a pick up, with out DNR harrasment.
I find it totally nuts that the DNR ticketed hunters for shooting from a (hay wagon). You had to take one wheel off to satisfy the DNR. Does that make sense? Too much power, and I'm glad the got their toby stomped on.
