So, I'm not a rifle guy but I've been looking in to it and I was wondering if anyone knows what the deal is with the legal calibers for deer hunting. Why does IDNR insist on making us use rifles chambered in such odd calibers?
I don't see any reasoning for restricting what I would consider 'real' rifle calibers from being used. It just seems I have to buy an over-priced gun that doesn't perform as well as the common hunting rifles used by the rest of the country and ammo for it costs an arm and a leg.
Any answers?
Where do I have to go to get the ball rolling on having such a ridiculous hunting regulation changed?
