Those were some strange minutes i thought. Seems them official don't even know their own regulations.
Here is a direct quote from the regulations last year..........
...............Hunters must use muzzleloader rifles with open or peep sights, and may not use smokeless powder...............
Myself, i have been using a peep sight during muzzy season for years now. I have also been using BH powder ever since it was available for purchase.
It very well may be i will use a 1X scope this coming year if the proposal is approved. It will make my sighting much better. I long ago purchased a 1X scope awaiting this day. I have never used it.
