Let's hope not. If they do anything, do away with muzzy altogether
They pretty much have in unit cwd
Correct, but what about the rest of us. I think in time the whole state may become cwd. What happens then? I don't get understand the whole straight wall bs. We have a muzzleloader season, and that's not a straight wall case. It would be a better argument if we had a primitive season.
Done away with hunting entirely in my area. It's year around road hunting mostly with thermals at night. If you try and hunt your land or sleep in your bed then you better have kevlar on.

Everyone I know that hunts in MS with a single shot 35 whelen has a scar on their eyebrow. Funniest thing ever.
I grew up in Indiana and they have (had at least) the dedicated muzzle loader season at the end of the year, and at first it was for only. Then they allowed a buck if you didn't kill a buck in the gun season. Personally, for me, I'd like to see it that way here, or not have weapon specific seasons at all. The one thing that would be a problem with that is that it is way too easy to kill any deer with a gun in early October. The more I've thought about it over the years, the more I do think any weapon all season is a good way to go. Just go and kill your deer however you want to.

It doesn't matter too me what they call the Season…
Archery I've always thought stared too early, and I'm a bow hunter at heart.
M/L season hits at a perfect time in my neck of the woods..
Gun Season I think starts at an appropriate time, however I think it should be extended thru February…with a 4 buck limit.
Just my thoughts, as it really doesn't matter too me, once m/l season opens …. It's on!
Those modern cartridge guns will never catch on anyway….

Given that TN already allows smokeless and Fire Stick compatible muzzleloaders in the MZ season, it wouldn't surprise me if they eventually reclassified it as a Primitive weapons season and allowed single shot, straight walled cartridge rifles. Personally, I really like the muzzleloader season but I'll admit that I'd shelve the Knight in favor of a single shot 450 bushmaster or 45-70 if it were allowed.
I heard from someone at TWRA it's coming....

Straight walled cartridges allow hunters who are too lazy to load a ml to get in the game early.

I used to enjoy mz when traditional but the technology has evolved into inlines, smokeless etc. woods were less crowded. horse has left the barn. Not sure what I'm going to do with all these guns if there is not a season. I do enjoy my stainless break open inline.

Allow straight walled cartridges and it will be just another 2 weeks of gun season.
With the lack of availability in mz components it's not a bad idea .

Just use your straight wall guns during gun season… I mean if you really want too use them, go ahead it perfectly legal.
I use my flintlock 95 % of the time, but that's my choice.
It's not for everyone…

I don't know about the straight wall cartridge but I'd like to see a combo of archery/ML/shotgun during the muzzleloader season. Just my thoughts.
