Yes, you can have a muzzleloader tag. And it's good for either sex. Technically couldn't he go buy another bundle license as well? Just using Jons situation where hes used his allotted 3 bundle deer, if one chose to? Yes he could buy another bundle. I was only thinking muzzleloader tag.

Dialed in my Accura V2 today. Shot Powerbelt Platinum 270 gr and TC XTP bullets in Mag Express sabots, 240 gr. Those TC's really impressed me. 1" group at 100 yards. Not so with the Powerbelts. They were accurate but not that accurate. Looking for some does on my place Saturday

I cleaned and put away the .30/06 and the .450 Bushmaster a couple nights ago, and got the .50 Hawken out. I'll put a ball downrange tonight to make sure everything's good, then I'll be toting it into the HNF Saturday morning. I still have to dig out my blaze orange buckskin pants and vest.. I'd say that you are about due for a big one. You've usually got him by now. I hope so.. This has definitely been my slowest deer season to date. I think I'm going to stop passing shots on mature does though; I'm just going to enjoy deer hunting and what comes comes.

It's not too late for you. You da man!

The ol' .243 helped me put 2 in the freezer this year. Now the Optima is wanting to go hunting. Range trip this morning verified that it's ready, so I promised to take it to the woods Saturday! What combo do you shoot out of your optima? I bought one over the summer havent shot it yet. May get it out to the range and see how i like it I shoot loose Pyrodex, mainly because I have a good supply of it. My gun shoots good with 100 grains, and a 240 grain Hornady XTP in a Hornady sabot.

Like was stated above, you can get a muzzle loader license. If you have not purchased a Military/Refuge license to use at Muskcatatuk, you can use the statewide muzzle loader license. If you don't fill it on the refuge, it is still good the rest of the season. Since you haven't taken antlers yet this year it's good for either sex. Thanks! I didn't know that I could have a muzzleloader and bundle. With three does, I can still buy a muzzleloader license? Yes, but you still have to stay within your county limits...

You still have an antlered deer that you can take in either muzzleloader season or archery season. It's all up to you.

You just cannot imagine what this has done for my mental status. I'm just thrilled.

I have mixed emotions... Take the TC Omega or the Horton Storm? Sure as I take the Storm a big 'un will walk past or just stand there at 60 yards. Talked myself into it - Probably take the Omega Omega for sure

They were accurate but not that accurate. Looking for some does on my place Saturday I usually use the TC (hornady) 240gr XTP, but found I only had 3 left. Re sighted my Optima for 245gr Powerbelts tonight as I had a whole pack of them. Went on Midway to order XTP and found the TC package of 30 for $0.10 less per piece than the Hornady 20 pack. FYI.
