This may just be a coincidental occurence this season but I swear that when I shoot my muzzleloader the deer react to it far less than with my normal rifle.
When I shoot my rifle they head for the hills and run for miles. I have had several hunts with my muzzleloader this year where I shoot, they may get spooked at first.. but then just go right back to their usual business. One instance I shot a deer, it dropped right in front of a doe, and the doe just stood there. Long enoguh for me to reload and shoot again!! (of course I missed)
Anyone else noticed this or is just coincidental?
