Is there any restrictions on muzzle loaders and is it only certain types of muzzle loaders that can be used on LBJ. I am looking to buy my dad a muzzle loader to use on LBJ and don't want to buy one if it is not allowed.

I don't think there is any restrictions on muzzle loaders at the Grasslands. I've seen people hunting with modern inlines w/ scopes, flintlocks and percussion rifles.

Yeah, it annoys me that blackpowder revolvers aren't allowed. Same loading technique, same type of bullet and powder, only with the revolver you are loading straight into the cylinder instead of the muzzle. Kind of dumb.

I called the office at LBJ-Caddo National Grasslands. As long as the rifle loads blackpowder from the muzzle, you may use it. Scopes are fine.

Colt, I think we are talking about two different LBJs. I believe the OP was inquiring about the national grasslands out by Decatur.
