loose powder is the way to go for the best accuracy. He said that loose powder will give you a better consistent burn and better accuracy.

Again, groundhog seems to have had the same results I have had.  I shoot a CVA Elkhorn Pro and was having accuracy problems.  I talked to the guys at Precision Rifle since I shoot their Extreme Elite bullet.  They told be to go from a 300 gr bullet to a 260 grain for 1:28 twist, be sure to shoot loose powder and back the charge down.  I am down to 75 grains of Tripple 7, my groups tightened up and I am dead on at 150.  I shot a nice 3 x 4 mule deer this year at 140 and was real happy with the bullet performance and penetration.

Coach,

I shoot a "new" Knight Bighorn.  I shoot 295 grn Powerbelts (because I hunt Idaho too) behind 90 grns of T7.  This combo has worked out well for me!

Not really sure why anyone would ask this type of question? The reason I say that is because you will get others opinons. You need to find what works for you. But if I had to answer the question I would say Knight Bighorn. Only reason I say that is because you find them at most local sporting good stores and they seem to be the hot ticket all over these forums. Don't mean to sound negative about asking this type of question....

Good Luck

Best pitch I got. CVA Elkhorn Magnum. Its got the 3 way ignition so its legal just about anywhere, fluted barrel so its nice and light and its easy to clean. Took 2 deer with it this year in Oklahoma and the wife took 1 with it. Goes boom man!

PS. Camo job is custom by me.

Kight Rifles are the best.
Easy to clean, and super accurate.
off hand I can punch 3 rounds in a 1" or so group at 50 yards.

I've never missed a pop can after the hunt while unloading.   ;)

Just saying.... in my humble opinion.
