New Indiana Deer Rifle

Why are they so clueless?
Well I guess it's good you guys can finally use Highpower rifles, but the new law seems just as idiotic as the old ones have been.
Personally, I'd skip either of them. Given only those two choices, I'd take a Ruger American and restock it.

Is this new rifle law official? Last I looked the 2016-2017 hunting regulations have not been release.Not sure what the hold up is but they are usually available the first week or so of July if my memory serves me rirght

The Indiana rifle law is weird as heck. Only rifles with .243 and .308 diameter calibers are allowed. These rifles can only be used on private land. I will be sticking with my .450 bushmaster, that was none of these new restrictions.

Those are the actual bullet dimensions. Indiana's Public Land regs on rifles doesn't make sense to me; You can use a 300 Remington Ultra Magnum, but you cant use a 25-06?
THIS IS FROM THE REGS:
Additional cartridges that are legal under HEA 1231 include, but are not limited to, the following:
6mm-06
6mm BR Remington
6mm PPC
6mm Remington
.240 Weatherby
.243 Winchester
.243 Winchester Super Short Magnum
.30 Carbine
.30 Herrett
.30 Remington AR
.30-06 Springfield
.30-30 Winchester
.30-40 Krag
.300 AAC Blackout (.300 Whisper)
.300 H&H Magnum
.300 Remington Short Action Ultra Magnum
.300 Savage
.300 Weatherby Magnum
.300 Winchester Magnum
.300 Winchester Short Magnum
.300 Remington Ultra Magnum
.307 Winchester
.308 Marlin
.308 Winchester
7.62x39mm

30 carbine allowed but NOT a 25/06? Somebody with an education needs to go over these regulations. There is a serious lack of knowledge displayed in this list.
