I am a big supporter of Knight rifles. I like them, and own a few Knight rifles. However I am not a fan of the 52 caliber rifle. IMO it is a caliber in search of a need that does not exist. I believe it was brought out for the simple reason of just seling another rifle to a guy who already has everything, but doesn't have a 52 caliber. Even at $9.50 for 50 sabots by the time you add freight that is over $20/100 for just the sabot. No bullet included in that price.

If you really want something different then I can understand that. As long as you are willing to accept extra cost, and not getting what you need to shoot in certain situations. Like on a hunt. Or if Knight decides not to sell 52 caliber items. Or if Knight goes out of business again.

Personally I would have considered the 52 caliber. But the first thing I would have done was to have a mold built for the caliber the way I wanted the mold to be. That way I would have a lifetime supply of cheap projectiles.

But to pay $9.50 for 50 sabots then another $30 or more for 50 Barnes bullets?? No way?? For what?? You are going to easily have over $1.00 a shot in your MZ. That is ridiculous.

Buy a mold or shoot cast bullets from the 52 caliber sabot. That expensive Barnes bullet is not a dimes bit more effective at hunting range with a 52 caliber MZ. Tom.
