I searched the net but couldn't find anything. Can anyone here give any statistics on deer hunting safety both pre and post allowing bottle neck rifles for deer in Indiana?

Being from Ohio I'd like to see Ohio start allowing "real" rifles during deer season as well. Indiana is very similar to Ohio with regards to terrain and population density, and if Indiana allows rifles without any significant increase in hunting accidents or harvest numbers this would be good ammo to push for similar rule changes in our state.

Thanks for your help!

Since it's only been 1 year there isn't really anything out there as the number of incidents was zero.
