Muzzle loading seasons we started after NMLRA started lobbying for them in the '60s...By the '70s most states had one or were moving in that direction...At that time most were getting into muzzle loading for the challenge of using a more primitive weapon...Well, like archery, others had different ideas and were using the season for more time afield and more meat in the freezer...It's too more don't care about our history or the development of firearms...There are some, who do still like to use flintlocks to harvest their game but we are a dying breed...
