Why though? what's there Reasioning behind the Regs????
Our Late MLing Season used to be Patch and Round Ball Only, then they changed it. They allowed Scoped and Sabots, there Reasoning was that a Scope would make You a Better Shot thus Causing Less Bad Shots and Wounded Deer. The use of a saboted Bullet was much Better Effiecent than a Round Ball and would Provide a Cleaner more Humane Kill on the Animal. The Scope would also give the Older or Less Eye Sight Impared a Better Visual on there Target, thus resulting in a Better Sight Picture and a Better Harvest Rate vs Loss Rate.
