Might be possible but only if they require all modern and muzzleloaders to shoot their game at 60 yards or less.

Been numerous times I've had elk within 60 yards, but didn't like the shot with a bow and had to pass them up - when I could have easily taken them with a rifle.

what this threat is really saying is that we should stop hunting elk during the rut. 

It would not be a case of rifle and muzzy now hunting in the rut, it would just put archery hunters in the woods with rifles and muzzy and force everyone to wear blaze orange.
