Default RE: Knight rifles

ORIGINAL: redline002

I read this forum everyday and I see how diverse everyones taste isin muzzleloaders. I reciently bought a Knight LRH and I love it. I would like to hear from people who own a Knight and what you like or dislike about it. Thanks
I have Knight Origonal Disc and used it as my only ML for about 4 years, before I bought an Omega. I got aheavy 9pt with the gun one AM, and several lesser bucks and does. The reason I got the Omega is my son talked about getting one and he reads all the MLand Rifle magazine and said it was a great rifle, easy to clean and accurate as heck, so I bought one because I could, really no other reason. I put a much better scope on it than I had on my Knight Disc, so the TC Omega became my primary rifle. However I like the bolt of the Disc and I like the way it shoots and the way it works with the Disc. I took the scope of it this year and itis going to be my 0 to 50 yard open sight gun, myOmega is ging to be my 50 to 100 gun and my Savage 10ML with smokeless and a ballistic tip bullet is going to be my 100 to 200 gun. Plan on shooting Nosler Partitions this year in theDisc and Omega with about 100g of loose 777 and a crushed rib sabot and Federal 209a primer. I get a crud ring in the Omega and i don't the the Knight. I like the feel of theDisc. I have thought of giving it to akid who loves hunting in the area, and I may do that, since there is a young man who loves hunting anjust earned an Eagle Scout rank in our church. He would be worthy of the gun. I believe Knight makes an excellent rifle, their stock is much better than the Omega plastic one and the Omega is much better than the plastic Savage stock. The Savage is much more accurate than the Omega and it is about the same as the Knight. I believe I could shoot further with the Knight. I would buy a Knight again, I believe they lost Market share because the kept with the old bolt design and didn't pay attention to market forces for accuracy and ease of cleaning, as TC did.
