Twra has caved again

[knightrider]

Use them high dollar fire stick cartridges all you want fellas

 

[RUGER]

I'm kinda confused?
Do you load the fire sticks from the muzzle?

Nope load from the breech, only bullet goes down the barrel on nitro fire stick muzzleloader

So are you saying these are now legal?
Sorry I ain't real bright.

The ignition module loads from the breech. The bullet loads from the muzzle.

I have no problem with this change as the loading time/motion is pretty much staying the same. It may be a more reliable ignition system, but not enough to be a big change.

Probably sell my
Muzzy once we are cwd positive anyways. We are already high risk. While I love my muzzy, I won't be carrying it once it's legal to use rifle instead

 

[Deer Assassin]

It will make no difference in anything

 

[peytoncreekhunter]

Is this the ignition system that has had some problems and "self ignited"?

I was thinking there was some kinda issue with these. Or something like them.

Yes, you are correct.

 

[RUGER]

Yes, you are correct.

Cool thanks!

Dang, Lade. There you go speaking common sense again

 

[SSlater]

At least they're good at something

 

[redblood]

I dont think is ground breaking. Im probably bow only anyway

What's different? Its always said load projectiles from the muzzle.

 

[Rakkin6]

I am not the most versed person on muzzleloaders. So what exactly is the change they are making? What was legal before that is illegal now? Sorry just trying to get clarification on the subject. Are they saying no more using anything including powders that can be loaded from the breech? So everything goes from the muzzle now?

I'm waiting on those fancy air bows to be legal

 

[mike243]

Those air bows might be legal, read something somewhere about them recently, a quick search and I don't see what I read

Yeah, that is how it worked out for me and I had just upgraded the bolt on my Rem ML700. Shoots great, but not quite like my .308. Heavier, less compact, and less versatile too. Still fun to break out for target practice.

 

[Wobblyshot1]

The thing that raises my eyebrows is that they succumbed to the lobbying of the only gun manufacturer that sells the gun that fits the new definition...but, whatever.

 

[TNGunsmoke]

The wording used to be loaded from the muzzle, meaning powder and projectiles. With this change, the projectile has to be loaded from the muzzle, but the powder(cartridge) can be loaded from the breech.

I keep thinking I might sell mine since I'm in CWD land. But as soon as I do, they'll have us go back to using them.

 

[DeerCamp]

My takeway here is it's pretty much open season here now in unit CWD. Rifle's through Jan 31, 3 buck limit, earn a buck for antlerless.

"There's a disease that's killing deer, so let's kill em instead"

 

[knightrider]

For all the doesnt hurt nothing, no big deal, blah blah, it means yet again they caved to a paticular group for one thing for no reason, same as no changes unless a biological reason which weve seen done a bunch. Keep letting them lie to you

Exactly my point but no one worries about what they do until its to late

Kinda like the same way nobody gave two squirts what they were doing to the duck blind draw and everyone called duck hunters crybabies.

I put in for muzzleloader quota hunts outside the CWD zone. Other than that, mine stays in the vault these days.

Yep. To stop a disease that Could kill all the deer we need to Kill all the deer. TWRA has to be smarter than this. These attempts have always failed on stopping the disease, but these measures have always succeeded at killing hunting and hunter morale in these areas.

I figure we 3 or 4 more good seasons. My buddies in McNairy already singing the blues from the kill 'em all mentality. I predict twra will be broke in the next few years. Jacked up turkey season and fixing to do deer season. No need to spend money on a license. Hunting won't b worth it.
