I have been wanting to try muzzy, but again money...?
The disc extreme has been a pipe dream , but well you know...
Today my wife comes home with this!!!
She has been watching the neighbors kid and pinching pennies to get this for me!
This is the second gun she has bought me.

I don't know where she found this but it is NICE!
The only downside is that it does seem to be significantly heavier, but I can deal with that as everything/ everyone I have read says this is the best muzzy legal in Washington.

Which powder/ bullets should I get?
50 cal right? If so...
If it were me and for Wa. I would run
CCI#11 Mag. caps
777-3F
Barnes T-EZ in 250g unless I wanted to set it up for deer and elk then I would go with the 290g T-EZ....Bloodline is good too from, what I hear

I grew up in Northern Oregon and got a few elk when I was younger.

Dude, you are one blessed man. What model of Knight is that? I am looking to find a legal muzzy and maybe take it up again.
It's the Knight "Disc Extreme"
Here is a link:

Get it with the western ignition and your all set...

Yes, she is a true P31 lady! She doesn't work a job per se, but she is always industrious, is always stretching dollars, and productive.
I got a powder flask, and measure last night. Little by little gathering stuff.

"She considers a Muzzle loader and buys it." Close enough.
P.S. PM sent.

One of the guys I hunt with shot a doe with a rifled shotgun using those and it took 4+ inches of spine out. ( neck shots).
I am not stuck on them but will try them? I was thinking bloodlines made by knight, but 39.00 for 20!!!

well, I got drawn for second deer, so hope the muzzy can pull it off twice!
Good deal goodluck buddy!

I can add this, which relates to my earlier post, when loading; it is powder, THEN bullet....*sigh*
I myself am using 300 grain XTP sabots being pushed by 90 grains of 7 FFF and using a CCI #11 mag cap. Have yet to have a misfire as long as I do not do something terribly stupid (and once I put a new nipple on the Hawkins, seems someone liked to dry fire it and kind of anviled the head of the old one).
