I went and did it
« on: May 26, 2009, 09:54:34 PM »
Well I've been hunting archery during elk season and modern firearms for mule deer.  My buddies want to try muzzleloading this year for muleys.  I've been trying to make an informed decision and doing my research.  Well today I bought a Knight Bighorn .50 cal with stainless barrel and thumbhole stock.  I am looking forward to shooting it soon.

Good choice.  May want to check page 5 of the peep site thread.....there is a link to e-parts for a peep site.  Scroll down to bottom of page.  They have both back and silver which matches the stainless silver on your bighorn.  I bought two to go on the two bighorns I got for my son and myself, which were camo/stainless.

Where are you from?  There are several places you can get a big horn. Bob's sporting goods in Longview. I know there is a place on river rd in puyallup that everyone tell's me has lot's of good muzzleloader supplies. I'm sure you could even find one on gunbroker.com right now.
It's not the size of the trophy that make's it a trophy.

You may just be one person in this world. But you may be the world to just one person.

Mill Creek,  I have never shot the bighorn, but want to try one.  I have a black diamond but want a back up gun because I drew a serious permit and don't want to mess it up.  Damn I was just in longview 2 weeks ago working on the ACE hardwhare too.
