stretch56,
First target that is excellant. You will find the XTP'S are a great bullet on game. I would also try some different sabots. I think the crush rib sabot will be a little to loose in a Knight Muzzleloader. The regular short black harvester or a short blackMMP will be a good choice.

stretch56: +1 to the sabots recommended by Grouse45. Don't know the sequence of shots in your target, but the middle group of 3 shows what the gun/bullet/shooter is capable of...very good !

It may be me, but I find the 250 XTP's give me a "tease" group like your middle group... then I get a 2" flyer. [:@] When I switchedto the 300 XTP in my Knight with the same sabot (Harvester short black).... very few flyers. YMMV
