I have an old Knight MK85 that I bought new a LONG time ago and its a good gun, just thinking I need a new one.
My buddy bought a Vortec NW edition a couple of years ago and its pretty cool, but I just want to hear what others have to say about whats out there.
I will stick with modern and .50 cal, other than that I have never even shot anything but FFg
Thanks.

Thats good to hear........I was a huge Knight fan before and glad to hear the new owners are keeping it up.
I shouldbe getting a new Knight model this week that is western legal and I believe a big step forward past the DISC Extreme - althought it is awful ding-dang-hard to beat the Extreme - or even your MK in a lot of ways...
Here is mine but I do use the Extreme a whole more than I do the MK anymore...

I am thinking of buying a knight, what is the difference between the bighorn and the disc extreme? Is there any advantage to the bolt action or is there other improvements that make the disc a better gun?
I believe that the DISC offers additional advantages that the Big Horn can not. The DISC is a bolt gun and does not operated with a plunger that can be blown back. The breech area is more secure not allowing stuff to drop into the breech area. It does a better job protecting the cap. And with the bolt face the cap can not fall off the nipple post.

Plus at any time you might want to you can convert it back to a 209 igniton and top it with a scope and hunt with during rifle season...
