Knight KRB

Just got my new KRB. Just wondering if anyone here had set one up/ shot it yet. Craftsmanship and feel is great, and looks like a very well thought out design to me. Having a world of trouble finding some suitable bases though as i do not like the weaver style. Any input would be greatly appreciated! I'm gonna try to fire this baby up next weekend!

Got mine last June. Great shooting rifle. I set it up with a set of Knight bases and rings, at least for now. I'll probably look to switch over to steel set after the season. I haven't really looked to see what's out there yet though. The scope is a Bushnell Elite 3200 3-9x40.My current load is a 250 gr Barnes expander with 110 gr. of FFF triple seven and Winchester 777 primers. The smallest groups have been1 1/8" and none have run over 1 1/2". I'm heading out on a hunt next weekend, so I'll hopefully have a good field report to give when I get back.

Thats a good lookin piece! Have you tried pellets in yours or have you shot loose powder only?

Nice looking gun. Not many inlines have got my attention in the past years other then Whites. But that rolling block has really got my attention. I like the black stock with the stainless steel barrel.

That is a nice looking rifle, and I sure am hearing some good accuracy reports about that rifle.

I only shoot loose. Can't see spending the extra cash for fewer shots on the pellets. Plus, I can fine tune things much easier with loose.

Dave.....Yep, the stainless looks really nice with the black synthetic stock. I mulled over getting the stainless for a bit, but I couldn't justify it cost wise. IMO, Knight did a great job designing this rifle. It's really well balanced and handles very nicely as a result. It weighs right at 8 pounds, but feels lighter. I'mreally liking the action too.

I've got a box of 375 buffalo sabots and a box of 410 gr GP conicals that I plan to put through it in the near future. I'm curious to see how they work out. I'm expecting good results.
