Why would anyone want to?  I can understand hunting with a traditional ML during modern firearms season but why a tricked out 209 abomination when you could used a scoped shotgun or modern rifle?

Someone could use a muzzleloader in a firearm restriction area during modern season. That would be the one instance I can think of where a guy might want to do so.

Sometimes its just what we like to do, such as picking a caliber of a gun. Like a one shot Remington.  Some like the challenge, but not willing to go all the way to traditional.  Some may like the excitement of the muzzelloader but their eyes don't work too well for those open sites.  May be like why I hunt with a traditional bow during the modern, they are after a late season permit, but really like to hunt with thier weapon, but can't.

 Both good points, I agree this is a stupid law.   I’m not sure that it is a law, maybe just a stupid writing or interpretation. 

I don’t see a problem with allowing a ‘limited” scope in ML season.  1X or even 2X.  I always wanted one like this:

Open all westside units that archers and rifle hunters have, to general muzzle deer/elk!
