Governor just signed the law to allow 30-06, .308, .243, .300 and others for deer.
Not a good move IMO. Time will tell.

So no one shoots centerfire rifles for any reason (varmints, targets, etc.) prior to now?
Same here in georgia, i live right off 1-85 corrridor in ne georgia. Our area is well populated thru here. Ga went to a hunter education law back in 1990's. Our accidental death rate is low. I can count 17 yard lights off my front porch, my stand is only about 350 yards behind my house. A hunting club borders my property, no problems from them. 270, 243, 30-06 7mm rem and many others used here.I live in North Carolina and we have always been able to use any caliber we choose. I have never heard of anyone being hit by a stray round from hunting. Maybe it has happened but I can assure you it isn't a regular occurrence. I shoot close to other occupied residences frequently with my 30.06 and somehow everyone around seems to live through it. I think this is a good thing for Indiana. Anytime there are less restrictions or government regulation is a win/win in my book.
