2011 long range Desert Mule Deer
 
1 Attachment(s)
I took this nice 11 pt. Desert Muley with my Knight Mountaineer at 208 yds. All that practice and trusting in the accuracy & long-range capability of Knight rifles payed off again. I hit him with only a small window of aim in a thick forest of Mesquite. The bullets slammed clean through and dropped him in his tracks.
If Knight can work out issues with their way-to-tight breech plugs, they might well have the best inline rifle out there.

That's a dandy Jim.

Nice Buck and Good Shot!
If you Practice, Practice and Practice More and have the right combination and a good ML it can be done regularry.
I have'nt taken one past 200 yet but with My ACCURA, to date I have had 2 Perfect Lung Shots and 2 Hear Shots at 177, 180, 174 and 185yds. And all were complete Pass Throughs. I Thank Bergarra Barrels Mostly for this.

Great Deer, Nice shot!!!!!!!!! That Breech plug problem just might be the deal breaker for me, I can't see spending that kind of money and getting a problem,

I don't know why you guys get these great deer and then throw up a little "Thumbnail" picture, Show'um off!!!! Doc
