I'm fairly certain the muzzleloader restrictions are only for the actual muzzleloader season, you can use scopes, sabots, etc. during a rifle season. Not that I would ever want to use a muzzleloader when I could tote a HPR. I have a muzzleloader just for states like Colorado now, I got it when Wal-Mart marked them down to less than $100 a few years ago. Traditions cerakote, break-barrel model. Factory open sights, nothing fancy. Shoots pretty good with 100 grain Blackhorn 209 and Federal Bore-Lock bullets. I thought so too, so I called their DNR. I wanted to use the Smokeless Savage during the late Cow Elk hunt. No can do, at least not with optics and sabots. Now I have a load worked up for a full bore .45 cal bullet but I still need to use optics.

My applications this year are pretty simple. My camp mates and I (along with a few valued guests) have decided to hunt 1st season for elk here in CO this year. I am shooting for bull and cow tags, hoping for at least one. Also, I am putting in for the limited entry hunt in IL again. I will be hunting IN again as well with a bundle in my pocket

Unsuccessful across the board in New Mexico.
My hopes are hinging primarily on Colorado and Wyoming now, with maybe a slight chance in Utah.

Applied for South Dakota deer. Not real good odds on the tag I applied for, but still got a chance.

Just got notified I was successful in KS firearms draw. Will be headed there in December.
My nephew did not draw, so I'll be going solo.

After that it'll be apps in for the draw hunts in IN and OH It took a friend 22 years to get his Maine Moose tag. Hunt lasted all of 15 minutes tops. The guide was just as surprised as my buddy. Basically they drove to the hunting area, stepped out of the truck and a bull stepped out of the brush 80 yards away. His .308 worked just fine. They didn't even get all their gear together to walk to where the guide wanted to start calling.
