In Wyoming there are four instances when a person can get charged for using a suppressor while "hunting":

My home state no longer has an auction to get rid of confiscated antlers.
They stopped having an auction a number of years (like 20 years) ago because, as mentioned in this thread somewhere, it gave the offending party an oppurtunity to recover the item that was the subject of the case...
What will they (ODWC) do with the cape and rack?
When they get around to cleaning out the freezer they will saw up the rack to make dog chews and donate them to the pet shelter. The cape they will just throw away.

I have a box of the Hornady 139 interbonds. I am not sure how many are still left, but I think most of them.
