Is the Knight disk the 209 in the plastic disk?
Yes the knight disc elite rifles use the red primers. Some people claim they get over five shots out of each disc. You migh want to check with Randy Wakeman if the rifle you are looking for needs sights. Some of the Elites or was it the Extremes came without sights but are all set to mount a scope on.
My brother lives in Alaska and I would like a gun that will also take big game at long range.
Sports writer Jim Shocky used Knight rifles like the Disc Elite for year to take large and dangerous game. They are excellent long range shooters for the most part. They come with a video. If you saw some of the shots they are making with Knight Disc & Elite rifles in that video on game it would amaze you.
I would also like to hunt hog in states with strict laws. That’s why ignition options and open breach is a must.
I do not think they classify the Knight Disc Elite as an open breech rifle. For that you have to look at some of the Wolverines. They are open breech. And they are more then up to the task of taking a hog.
Some other excellent open breech mussleloaders are the Knight Bighorn, Wolverine, Thompson Center Black Diamond, and there are some open breech models in the CVA and Tradition's line.
