Default Knight KRB

Just got my new KRB. Just wondering if anyone here had set one up/ shot it yet. Craftsmanship and feel is great, and looks like a very well thought out design to me. Having a world of trouble finding some suitable bases though as i do not like the weaver style. Any input would be greatly appreciated! I'm gonna try to fire this baby up next weekend!

Got mine last June. Great shooting rifle. I set it up with a set of Knight bases and rings, at least for now. I'll probably look to switch over to steel set after the season. I haven't really looked to see what's out there yet though. The scope is a Bushnell Elite 3200 3-9x40.My current load is a 250 gr Barnes expander with 110 gr. of FFF triple seven and Winchester 777 primers. The smallest groups have been1 1/8" and none have run over 1 1/2". I'm heading out on a hunt next weekend, so I'll hopefully have a good field report to give when I get back.

Nice looking gun. Not many inlines have got my attention in the past years other then Whites. But that rolling block has really got my attention. I like the black stock with the stainless steel barrel.

That is a nice looking rifle, and I sure am hearing some good accuracy reports about that rifle.

I only shoot loose. Can't see spending the extra cash for fewer shots on the pellets. Plus, I can fine tune things much easier with loose.

Dave.....Yep, the stainless looks really nice with the black synthetic stock. I mulled over getting the stainless for a bit, but I couldn't justify it cost wise. IMO, Knight did a great job designing this rifle. It's really well balanced and handles very nicely as a result. It weighs right at 8 pounds, but feels lighter. I'mreally liking the action too.

I've got a box of 375 buffalo sabots and a box of 410 gr GP conicals that I plan to put through it in the near future. I'm curious to see how they work out. I'm expecting good results.
