Idaho's muzzleloaders are pretty basic.... rule:
• Equipped with only open or peep sights. Scopes and any electronics are prohibited.
• Loaded only with loose black powder, loose Pyrodex, or other loose synthetic black powder. Pelletized powders are prohibited.
• Loaded with a patched round ball or conical non-jacketed projectile comprised wholly of lead or lead alloy.
• Equipped only with a flint, percussion cap or musket cap. 209 primers are prohibited.
• Equipped with an ignition system in which any portion of the cap is exposed or visible when the weapon is cocked and ready to fire.
I don't know about you guy's but I think this is about as primitive as it get's with a muzzleloader here in Idaho, not sure how those stat's are accurate, I could be wrong thou, I don't see that muzzleloader/archery are the same as rifle as far as success rate, either that or there are more liar's out there than we thought that are untruthful in there harvest report just too be "cool" or skim the stat's.
