I think I am going to pick up another box of the Barnes 300 gr this week and shoot again. That is what I shot for several years and was getting sub-2" groups at 100 with them. Could be my Knight just eats those better.
Thanks for the comments and suggestions.

btw...Years ago, I called Knight, looking for the "best" bullet for the Disc...

The guy told me if a Disc wouldn't shoot with 100grs and a 300gr Barnes, to pack it up and send it back, cause there was something wrong with it...

That may very well be the reason I was initially shooting the 300 gr....it may have been suggested to me when I purchased the rifle a long time ago. I am 60 years old and the best I can remember is I don'tremember as well as I used to! (;0) At least that's what my much younger wife tells me!

Some of the Knights back a ways require a thicker sabot to shoot their best. Check your bore size and see what it is if it is .502 you just need a thicker leaf sabot. Lee
