Where I hunt, it's illegal to hunt whitetail deer with a centerfire (and of course rimfire) rifle.

However, I can hunt turkey with a centerfire rifle.

And fall turkey overlaps with black powder and shotgun only whitetail season.

What the heck is up with that.

I am not surprised, most of our park land and national game facilities are being surrendered to the UN bolshevics and are gradually becoming subserviant to the UN charter as "World habitats". This vermin are out to enslave us, they will fail and end up in the bowels of history ,along with other dictators and related scum.

in the Gestapo state of ill ,it is illegal to hunt with a center fire rifle period ,and on some gov property you can not use a single projectile

pretty soon you will have to squire hunt with peanut butter and rat traps

Pretty soon we'll be throwing rocks at them instead of using firearms.

Southern part of the state is shotgun only for der--no rifles and some towns are shotguns with single slug (no 00buck)
But you can use a modern inline muzzle loader rifle during primitive firearms season.
These shoot like a regular centerfire rifle--so why the goofy law

Here,you can use a rifle or shotgun for deer and small game,but you must use a shotgun for turkey.
