Only a couple places I hunt could I take a 200 yard shot.

Good shooting. Either one would drop a deer.

+ they have added another hardening process to the surface of the plug for the 2012 offering.


Well beings things are going back to normal?

I thought i had read while on vacation that you had posted in a response to a poster..... WHAT BP PROBLEMS??

Well there has to be an issue if they are adding a process and adding cost to being made.

I have left a message at Knight and Lehigh about my issue, yesterday morning at 8am and guess what, still no response. GREAT CS!!!

Not hardly, I have 15 other muzzle loaders and my Endeavor will out shoot them all. I used to have some good shooting Knights to but sold them. I like bolt action cartridge guns but have yet to see the point of bolt action muzzle loaders.

Case head pressure kills break open centerfires, and the breechplug in an M/L obviates this.

If a break open is made well to start out with, I cannot see a M/L application killing it.

Your absolutely correct and there is no evidence that it does,only speculation from those who favor the bolt action M/L rifles..
