greyghost Report post Posted March 19, 2003 I am not into blackpower right now, but have often considered getting into it. I think they would be a great challange to hunt with. You also have a slight better chance of drawing a tag for your selected game. What sugestions does anyone have when buying your first muzzleloader? greyghost Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

greyghost Report post Posted March 21, 2003 From what i understand Knight is a top line poll. I'll check into them more. Anyone else shoot a muzzleloader? greyghost Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coueshunter Report post Posted March 21, 2003 I have been thinking about getting one as well. I am clueless, but of course have heard Knight makes a good weapon..........I know I would make sure the scope it appropriate for the gun so it can take the punishment.........Allen........

Arizona Griz Report post Posted March 26, 2003 I I have never had a desire to shoot a muzzleloader but I eventually want to get a black powder cartridge rifle gun. Probably a 45-120 or 50-140. I have always wanted to shoot a Sharps. Arizona Griz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KGAINES Report post Posted August 11, 2003 I KNOW THIS IS AN OLD TOPIC BUT I JUST READ IT, I SHOOT A THOMPSON 54 CALIBER HAWKEN STYLE MUZZLELOADER, I HAVE HAD IT FOR TWO YEARS AND SHOOT IT PRETTY WELL, I HAVE NOT BEEN DRAWN FOR ANY MUZZLELOADER HUNTS YET, BUT I CAN'T WAIT TO USE IT, ALSO A FEW YEARS AGO WE BOUGHT A 45-70 SHARPS REPLICA FOR MY DAD, IT WAS A FUN GUN TO SHOOT, ONE PROBLEM WAS MY DAD COULD NOT SEE THE SIGHTS VERY WELL, HE TRADED IT FOR A MARLIN GUIDE GUN IN 45-70 WHICH HE COULD SHOOT VERY WELL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jason Report post Posted August 12, 2003 I recently bought a Knight Disc extreme for a Elk hunt in NM this year and it is really nice and easy to learn and shoot. But, not balanced very well though(front heavy). Maybe they are all like this, this is my first muzzleloader. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WalkingW Report post Posted October 12, 2003 Why even bother!! If you are going to hunt with a black powder rifle go with a BLACK POWDER. If you are going to use one of the new disc rifles you should have to put in the genaral hunts. I think that there are two hunters: one that is in it for the kill and one that is in it for the hunt.
