loading up with plastic
Hi Guys, Been awhile since i was here. Have a question. I shoot a Knight Disc Elite and I was wondering if any of you who shoot Knight Rifles can give me some idea how many shots you shoot before your groups open up or are effected in any way due to plastic fouling from the sabots. I have finally found a 200 yd combo and i want to shoot some more for fun but am afraid to because hunting season is so close. Please help an old man who cant retire but shoots and hunts every chance he gets.

I have put a lot of rounds through my Kngihts and never noticed any plastic from the sabots. If you suspect any plastic fouling, take a nylon brush and some solvent and just scrub the bore. Then a solvent patch or two. And that should take care of any problem.
The new sabots are no where near as the old ones were. I think your safe to shoot, have fun, and still hunt with the rifle.

CVA and Knight barrels are very smooth. Some TC barrels are very rough and they pick up plastic. Both my Encore and my Black Diamond came with rough barrels. they were OK after a couple sessions with patches and jeweler's rouge on a tight patch.
