has anybody ever heard what fish and games plight over the 209 primer was/is? hammer system?
that is something that im really not understanding. we can break it down to the simpliest of its form.
1. each shot loaded from the muzzle idividually
2. seperate ign. system
3. iron sights.
just from what has been said in the past they want to lean towards traditional/ primitive etc.(keeping things fair?)
my questions.. why only loose powder(over pellets) but pyrodex is allowed?
when was pyrodex considered traditional/ primitive?
why only percussion/musket cap?
ignition is ignition is ignition.
why the specifics on hammer style?
does hammer style let you shoot another 100yds further.does a bolt stlye load the gun itself
the basis of a muzzy explained and known... has to be handloaded each time it is shot, has to be fitted with an ignition system that is seperate no matter what type is used. taking sight through iron sights.
so know matter what combo you use, it should not matter because you are still under those basic fundamentals.
you should be able to use a 3lb. keg touched off with a road flare.. it doesnt matter.. you still can only see what you can see through iron sights, handload etc.
fish and game cannot tride the traditional train on this one because what is traditional with the archery products out there..not bashing bowhunters because im one myself.. but there seems to be no just cause for thier plight.
seems to me that F&G needs to think about what they do and say for a change.
lord knows that mech. releases, fall aways, carbon arrows, fiber optic sights, compound bows are as traditional as an 1861 springfield
anybody have insight or have heard what drives there decision making process on this topic?
