Title: High hunt question?
Post by: superdown on August 19, 2014, 01:27:51 PM: Ok so since i will be buying a muzzy tag this year i wanted to know if during the high hunt can i use a scope / 209 primers with my muzzy since this hunt is open to all three weapons?

Was just going to say that. You probably could if you had a modern tag, although I would want to verify that before taking my word for it.
