The newer Knight rifles are just fine. TC has convinced everyone the a ML that is easy to clean is better. I have an older Kmight BK 92 and a new Knight Master Hunter. They both shoot very well. I also have a Omega Thumbhole that I like but IMHO the Knight has better craftsmanship. I saw the new Knight at the Nashville NWTF program this past weekend. The new rifle with 2 barrels is going to come in around $700 according to one of their people at the Knight booth. I took a trigger pull scale with me. My 2 sons have Pro Hunters. The very best trigger we could fing when they got the Pro hunter was 6 1/2 pounds. The Knight was a smooth no creep 3 pounds. Plus the Knight triggers are adjustable.
