I have a LRH that I purchased before Knight suspended operations. It's a very accurate shooter. It makes me look like I know what I am doing when I am at the range . I use Lehigh Dave's plug with my LRH. Plus, I will pay more for a US made rifle. My experience is that companies with overseas-made rifles are working hard to find ways to cut corners with their rifles. IMO, $800 is a little high but not out of consideration for the LRH.
