Default What load for Knight Original Disc

Hello fellas, I have a Knight disc I'd like to set up. I going to use 777, not sure how much or what bullet yet. What did anyone that has a Knight Disc find their gun likes. I've found my MK-85 loves 300 gr. bullets and 100gr of BP. Wondering if its going to be the same way.Thanks

Well my original Knight Disc seems to like about anything I shove down it. But normally I use between 100-110 grains of powder and a 250-300 grain bullet. It especially likes Shockwaves and Barnes MZ Expanders in the 250 class. They are a great rifle.

My Knight .45 disc likes just about anything also, 90 --110 of RS preforms very well, JSG 100--120 of 3F is a very close 2nd. I'll be doing some testing soon with BH 209 in the Knight .45 along with my new CVA Apex also in .45. Good luck.
