Winch Man you know I attached that nic-name because of those crazy little winches you build for those small cars I want to say 'toy cars' but someone would get mad at me for calling their hobby a 'toy'.  I could not believe the power you develop with them and how small they are.

I hope you get out and start breaking that rifle in soon!
Keep shooting muzzleloaders - They are a blast!!

After having my new Knight Ultra lite since the 7-1-15 I finally found some time to shoot it tonight ,, It is what Has been said about it ,a very good shooting  ML rifle. I used Thor .50cal 247 gr bullets, 110 grains of triple 7  fff powder,
Thank you Sabotloader for the good help and the bolt loosened up some while shooting 9 shots threw it ,,

Dang! Winch Man for a brand new gun out of the box and the first time shooting it you stacked them right in there.  I really hope it was fun!  Now you need to get you some less expensive bullets and maybe even some sabots so ya can do a lot more shooting!  That one picture of you holding the rifle it just looks natural for you.  Did you show yer brother the results.  And the results will just get better the more you shoot and handle it.

How about the peep - did that work out for you?  One thing I forgot to mention - in low light situations you can simply unscrew the peep aperture out of the sight and use the whole thing as a 'ghost ring setup'

Gordy sent a package I need to get out your direction also.

If they will let you, the range people, get a box of clay pigeons (the biodegradable ones) set them out there in front of you at different ranges and pick them off - ton of fun.

This bullet from Lehigh could be a real good alternative in combination with a bit of Knurling and a sub-base
