Will use my Knight Revolution II during MZ seazon and during gun season where a long shot might be called for. Will use a 300 grain SST or Speer Unicore bullet.
Will use my Freedom Arms .475 Linebaugh for close range hunting during gun season.

I wanted to hunt a bull elk with a new T/C Hawkens .50cal I just built this last spring but didn't draw a tag. So I'll try it next year. I'll just fling some sticks at them this year.

My go to rifle is a Knight Wolverine 209 (.50/Thumbhole) topped with a Bushnell Trophy3X9 and shootinga 300 gr. Hornady SST on top of 100 grains of pyrodex, and hopefully Ill break out the ol'T/C Hawken .54 with a 350 gr. Maxi-Hunter over 90 grains of Goex...
Good luck this year...

My T/C Encore 209X50 loaded with 200g Shockwaves over 130g of Pyrodex pellets. I haven't really had any time to play with it this year and I know how this load shoots.

My Encore 209x50 topped with a Nikon 2.5x7 Buckmaster Scope. My load is a 250 Gr Shockwave over 2 50 gr. American Pioneer Pellets. Also shoot a 209x50 NEF Huntsman with a fixed 4x Simmons. This gun likes a 250 gr. Hornady SST over 2 50 gr American Pioneer Pellets. Killed deer with both last year, both with impressive results.
