inline and caribou

[ballistics Hunter]

So there I was with my inline muzzle-loader and my first caribou in sight(quite a nice caribou to). naturally I thought because this deer is roughly the same size as a red deer it must be considered big game so therefore I use the .50 cal bullets instead of the .45 cal because after all the .45 cal is used for medium size deer on this game!!! Anyway I take my shot and who should pop up in the top left hand screen but that stupid hairy face t*t doc! Saying that this ammo is not ethical. Now will someone please tell me why it is not ethical for caribou when they are pretty much the same size as a red deer and I'm pretty damn sure their not medium size deer?

because the gods of this world (our devs) say so.

They are noticeably smaller than red deer.....

I agree and to me its kinds silly to have to use 2 different types of ammo. I used to shoot the lead conical bullets out of my old Hawken cap lock except we call them maxi balls. I know that the sabot bullet will kill bear,elk,hogs, pretty much any animal IRL that is.

I did the same thing on my first caribou .50 cal and dropped it. worst part about the inline is that is has two bullets.

[Derpy_McDerpyson]

They likely did that to balance the number of animals .45 sabot and .50 conical rounds are legal for. It is now 6 and 7 respectively.

The .45 sabbot for reindeers make no sense in my eyes. They should be allowed the .50 conic ball for it. Cus when u hunt reindeer and red deer with a shotgun, u must use slugs for them. And normaly its all animals thats u can kill with the .45 sabbot alowed to shot with Buckshot.

So why slugshell for reindeers and by the inlinemuzzleloader the .45 sabbot for the same animal? Thats make no sense to me.

also cant i understand thats my first reindeer kill tonight with the .50 conical bullet get me a msg fron doc as unpermited hit. But in the summery its not shown diquallify in the sheet its show a score for that reindeeer.

I bought 2 in-lines. One for the .50 cal and one for the .45 cal.

Works great. I put the silver scope on the .50 and the black scope on the .45. Quick glance at the scope confirms I have selected the right caliber for the animal.

I will say when I first tried this system out, I did goof and shoot a tremendous bull elk with the .45.

It's just rules......Games have rules.

They don't always have to make sense.

Why can you only take 2 steps with the ball in basketball, and not three?......Because it's the rule.
Why can the goalie in soccer use his hands, but no one else can?.....Because it's the rule.
Why can we shoot deer in Missouri with a crossbow during rifle season, but not during bow season?.....Because it's a rule.

Mudbug why not the old muzzleloader for .50 and the new inline for .454 .

I think it´s a nice feature you get twice the ammo . carrying old and new muzzleloader is like a slow smokey double piped shotgun

Raindeer is a lot smaller then red deer. They weight virtually nothing when you crash with them.
