Here in NH....there are zones or Wild life Management Units...that only allow muzzleloader

And shot guns only. Then there are rifle zones...where it is less populated.

But now ...you can use a Strait Walled Cartridge in 45-70 ...in the shotgun only zones .

Any other states like this ???

There are a lot of states that now allow straight wall cases. I believe Iowa is one and parts on MN will be that way this next year. It is what is fueling the "Blackout" caliber craze. You can't give used slug guns away anymore.


I have nothing clever to put here.

Constitution carry too.

Michigan allows straight walls in the shotgun zone. Became legal maybe 5 or 6 years ago.

If I had a dollar for everyone I know that owns a 450 Bushmaster I’d be able to buy one.

Same as here Nessy. Ben shoots a .44 mag. Henry Carbine.

The .350 and .400 legends are popular along with the .450 bushmaster mentioned above.

45/70 is legal but the old .30-30 isn't, and that's a shame.

I've just stuck with my ol' model 12 shotgun. Killed a lot of deer with it over the years.

These are straight-walled. I think you should get you a nice double rifle and take it out to woods. Be a good brush gun. LOL

I didn't know that you were a model 12 man. We can officially be friends now.

They've been chambering it in revolvers and single shot pistols for more than fifty years. Ive always thought it was funny that it's legal in straight wall places, because technically it's tapered.

I've got just the one, Sam. I bought it for 150 bucks years ago, and only use it for deer hunting. It likes those cheap Winchester slugs and puts them right where you want em.
My brother in law is a true model 12 collector and has a safe full of them, including some rare ones.

Careful trusting AI I googled something about our regs in MN and AI was way off from the law book on the answer it gave. Could get a guy in trouble.

We were like that here for a long time and we built some .358 WSSM rifles that fit the specks and then they changed it to about any rifle caliber on private ground.
