I personaly think there is no problem with scopes on inlines. As long as the scope is 1X I don't think they need to be variable scopes.

If they were to allow scopes on ml during a ml season people should be able to use variable power scopes.

There is no problem with putting a scope on an inline,but they shouldnt be allowed during a traditional muzzy hunt.They should have a seperate season or be used during a any legal weapon hunt.

Inlines themselves are not traditional to begin with so technically a traditional ML season should be for traditional ML's only.

I voted yes for a 1 power scope also, if higher than that I would have voted no.

However I don't see or have an issue with a separate season if a state chose to do so. Utah just has one season, which I'm okay with also. I realize this is a hot topic, and some would disagree. But I know expert, heck I don't own a Muzzleloader yet, I've borrowed one the last 2 years. :)

i voted no. i like oregons regulations. most of are muzzy hunts are during the rut. and they only offered the hunt based on the limitations of TRADITIONAL muzzleloaders. no scopes, no powder pellots,no sabots, open ignition, no 209 primers.a long shot for are muzzy's is 100yrds.

When I started hunting with a muzzleloader we only had traditional equipment and shots at 250 yards just weren't feasible. The equipment has seen such vast improvement that muzzleloading doesn't even resemble what it started out as. It's really no challenge with today's equipment and I quit doing it. I liked it when it started basically because the woods was devoid of hunters. Now it's just another season. Nearly 30 years ago I hunted for a full season with a 50 caliber hawken I built and took 6 bucks in as many states with it. It was a round ball rifle and shots over 100 yards were just too iffy.

I think that states would be wise to offer a Traditional Muzzle Loader hunt and a anything goes Muzzle loader hunt. It would bring in more funds and please more people. Or just limit the Muzzle loader hunts to traditional gear and those that want to hunt with all their bells and whistles can always hunt on the any weapons hunt.

I just wish Wyoming had more muzz opportunities. I prefer open sights, no scopes for the muzz season. I don't want to get into the rest of the debate. To me, the scope is the single biggest factor.

I'm not really bothered by inlines and scopes. My dad has always hunted with a Hawkins, and a couple years ago he put a Green Mountain barrel on it to shoot sabots. I shoot an inline with open sights, and my bother shoots an inline with a red dot, so we are pretty diverse. I really don't care what you use.
