Shotgun only states???
I was wondering what states restrict the use of shotgun only for deer hunting.
I live in NY and certain zones in the southern zone are restricted to shotgun,muzzleloader,pistol and bow. |

Massachusetts is a shotgun only state as well.
You can use an inline muzzleloaderduring shotgun and muzzleloader season though which sort of contradicts the no rifle rule IMO. You'reeven allowed to use a hinge action muzzleloader during the shotgun season. I know you only get one shot, but with a good muzzleloaderand a good scope you're shooting a high powered rifle and only need the one shot IMO. I've been leaving the shotgun at home and using the inline when I hunt from my treestands. |

Illinois is shotgun only, although you are able to use muzzleloaders and handguns but centerfire rifle is off limits! If only I could've used my 7 mm mag. on Friday! I had a 150 class buck at 80 yards! Oh well,maybe next year!

ORIGINAL: IAKSmith Iowa is a shotgun only state. There is also a hnadgun and muzzle loader season but no high power rifle season. Iowa does have a rifle season now. It is for antlerless, and restricted to northern counties. But a rifle season none the less. Like said earlier, here in Illinois we are shotgun, muzzleloader, and handgun only for firearms. |
