I was thinking about the Knight Mountaineer that some of you are shooting but I just can't get rid of my aversion to that antiquated ignition system with the knob to unscrew.
I was looking at used Rem 700/50 MLs but I would much prefer a .45. And the Rems I looked at were not in the best of shape anyway. Then along comes CVA with its new Paramount. This looks like a winner. I think I'll give it a little more time and see what the reviews are on it before I make any decisions.
Have a Custom .45 Built
If i were going that Route, i would want a Rifle like BarnesAddict’s “DUNAMIS” I am a Remington 700 Fan, I have been all of my Life. I absolutely LOVE my Knight Mountaineer! BUT, If there were Anything i could change? It would no doubt be the Trigger, I REALLY wish that Knight could Get together With Bix’NAndy and have a Trigger Made to Fit their Rifles as an Upgradable thing for us Target Guy’s. The Trigger that comes in the Mountaineer is fine for the Average Guy Wanting a Solid, Reliable Hunting Rifle. But for Target/Bench, the Stock triggers in these Guns are Ok at best. I have mine adjusted as light as i can Safely get it, it’s ok and gets me By, i have no choice but to live with it.
The Remington would allow you the Bix’NAndy Trigger, Or Jewel, Personally i would go Bix
