Steve in PA, based on your post I went and checked out the PA Game Commission's website. My understanding was incorrect. Looks like rifles can be used for some seasons in some WMUs. But if I'm reading the regs correctly, rifles are not allowed for spring gobblers, and only in some WMUs in the fall.
