Our "gun" season for deerallows shotguns, muzzleloaders, or archery. All I've used for the past 10 or more years is a muzzleloader. The choice of inline or sidelock depends on location and weather. If shots will probably be less than 100 yards and/or the weather might cause problems with a scope the sidelock gets the call.

You can bet that I'll have my trusty T/C Encore Pro Hunter 209x50 during ANY and ALL firearm hunts I go on!

How many of you use your ML during regular firearms season? I am just curious, as I plan to use my savage ML during regular firearms season this year.
I plan on doing that this year. Chap Gleason

My state (Ohio) does not allow centerfires. After about 15 years of being smacked around by slug guns, I finally wised up and got a muzzleloader. Difference is day and night. Cheaper to shoot, more accurate, better triggers, less recoil, and the deer are just as dead. Even if I went hunting in a state that permitted centerfires, I would not feel undergunned with my muzzies.

I use a centerfire for about 4 days and the ML for 18 days in WIplus I use the ML for elk and deer in CO.

The only time i feel dis-advantaged is when going after a big hog in a thicket with a M/L.i'm getting a Remington type cap and ball revolver for that reason.

Muzzleloaders are all I used for the past 15 years, modern or muzzleloader season.
For the past 15 years?
