Default A couple more can't hurt

I came across a deal on one of the forums.. I am kind of excited about shooting these guns..



This is a Knight MK86 12 gauge shotgun with the turkey choke. I want to use it to see how far I can bust a gobbler with it. I intend to throw a RED DOT on it next week, as soon as I can get some bases for it. Then I will go out and pattern the shotgun.

Then I picked up this...



It is a 50 caliber CVA Tracker Carbine with a 21 inch barrel. I checked the twist and suspect it to be 1-32 which should shoot some conicals. I also have a CVA Stalker Carbine so they look nice side by side. I want to see how well this little stalking rifle will shoot.

MAN,I am so glad you're "finished buying new guns". Now, where the heck is that KRB (I think you have already bought one and won't admit it.).

Don't set that red dot too far back or the scope will
get covered with soot.That is what happened on my
CVA 50 cal..After about 5 ot 7 shots it was hard to see through
worked out good though..Good luck with it..Nice lookin rifles there.

Nice looking guns Dave. Like the CVA but as you should know by now, I'm partial to traditionals. Hope they shoot well for you. I know you will find the right bullet/powder combo for them.
