I believe you mean muzzle loader season, the type of powder doesn't matter. To answer your question, yes you can, it must be a muzzle loading shot gun loaded with a single projectile.Can i use a shotgun during black powder season?
In Illinois, you can use a black powder rifle during shotgun slug season or you can use the black powder rifle during the '; black powder only'; season.
I usually take my BP rifle first shotgun season and take the shotgun on the second shotgun season.
There is a black powder only season but I have never hunted it since they allow it during shotgun season also. Has to be a slug though in the shotgun.
Not in most states. (Unless you're using an old black powder muzzle loading shotgun)
No modern firearms can be used during that season.
In my home state, you can't even carry a modern handgun for personal protection while in the field hunting during black powder season.
Your state's hunting regulations will tell you for certain if it's permitted or not.
That depends on whether your state permits shotguns for deer.
IF they do, AND you use a BP shotgun then yes.
Some states require a rifle, some require a shotgun, some you can use either.
IF rifle permitted why not use a BP rifle? MUCH greater range than ANY shotgun.
Laws vary from state to state. If it is ';black powder'; season it is unlikely conventional shotguns are permitted. Contact your local DNR for more information or pick up a hunting license rule book at just about any sporting goods store.
