Default Knight T-Bolt - any feedback?

I am looking at a Knight T-Bolt for my son. I am unfamiliar with this model and do not know anyone who has one. Anyone out there have any comments on this rifle. I know it has the Green Mountain barrel, 1-in -28" twist and uses a 209 primer. I also Knoight discontinued this model....why? Are there problems? Thanks. I want to get my son a decent rifle for acheiving the Eagle Scout Rank.
I am familiar with the MK 85 and really like it.

Predator1,the T-Bolt uses musket caps not 209 primers.I have one and it will cut bullet holes at 100 yards it just shoots outstanding. This model came out before the Disc Rifle and the Disc replaced it hope this helps.

Predator1- the Knight T-Bolt is a high quality excellent rifle. I purchased one 2 yrs. ago for my son who is now 17 yrs. old. He has taken several deer and Russian boar with his T-bolt, the most recent being a 12-pt. trophy buck he downed on Thanksgiving morning. My son's rifle has the 209 primer conversion kit and uses the 209 shotgun primers. I also have a MK-85 and you will find the same Knight high quality in the T-Bolt rifle as you have in the MK-85. You will not be sorry if you get him a T-Bolt. Knight has discontinued several of their models including both the T-Bolt and the MK-85 and it is not because of any problems with them. My son has never had a problem with his T-Bolt other that me trying to borrow it on occasion from him.

*bump*

I borrowed my friends T-Bolt w/ a 209 conversion kit and it is the best gun ive ever used even better Bass Pro Shops is selling them for 200 dollars flat rate (no extra charge for Camo or stainless barrel) good deal
PS - i also shot a 205lb 8 point with it which kinda makes me a little biased maybe but nonetheless a quality gun.
