I had a Knight Wolverine way back. Cheap Tasco 4x.
MMP sabots, Remington 240gr JHP, 100gr FFg and a #11.
Was a great shooter and popped deer to 150 with no problem.
And I sold it to a coworker and bought a Stainless TC Hawken.
Why?
Because that Knight made it too easy. Was a killing machine.
I had good eyes so iron sights and having to cock the hammer when big ears are close.....was fun for a while.
Longest shot was 178 yards, iron sights, TC Renegade. Pinwheeled.
Had a New Englander that after bbl polish cloverleafed irons, in the X at 100.
Lost that target in a move...........dangit.
It would vertically string when new.
We learned (me and a bud) that it took about 100 round ball shots to get a new TC to behave.
Saw one that had a bbl channel off a bit and the hooked breech didn't set right. Guy had a peep on tang and missed an elk. Sold me the gun cheap. I bedded the bbl, fixed screws that were run in the stock, and went w the barrel sight.
Thats the one that popped the deer at 178. Sold that to a coworker who hollered at me in the hall months later, ran up to me..........like he was mad or something.
Said he finally got around to shooting that Renegade and said it was the most accurate muzzleloader he ever saw. I just smiled and said " yeah, I told ya it was a good one".
