    Cap and Ball in Colorado

    Most regs I have seen consider a cap and ball revolver NOT to be a muzzleloader since the charge is loaded directly in the cylinder, not the barrel. My home state of Texas won't even allow a double-barreled muzzleloader. Packer

    Traditonal Muzzleloaders In Regular Gun Season ??
