I currently shoot a traditions vortek and its a great gun but have the opportunity to buy this one. It's a knight bighorn with thumbhole stock and peep sight. Its around 15 years old but only been shot 8 times. I got him down to $175, worth it?(https://hunting-washington.com/smf/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fuploads.tapatalk-cdn.com%2F20161127%2F01a1c19eee1cf060f6dc30c25d5d22d6.jpg&hash=096050a342a8fdd7226ce467d65fda2cffd6b2a6)
heck YES!!!! they are $500+ now at Sportsman WHSE.

Think it would be hard to get hurt on that one, if you don't like it just sell it. However, I don't see the peep sight?

Its there, I've held the gun. A guy at work has it. I'm just trying to decide if I want it

Even if it's a want vs "need" if it checks out see if you like it better than your traditions. Then you have a choice to make sell one or keep both and have a back up. I have couple wants now just waiting to find one of them. When find it in .50 cal I'll sell one my current .50 cals.

Being a plunger-action ML, shooting Blackhorn 209 in it is a no-no.

Just so you're aware....

Grab a WA legal breech plug if it is 209 ignition.

Just so you're aware....can't 209 during the specific muzzleloader season, but it would be okay in modern season (deer/elk) and the other animals.

Actually you can shoot 209 by duplexing the loads, with either #11 or muskets caps. I have considered trying duplexing and haven't convinced myself one way or the other if it's worth the effort. Or are you saying the powder isn't legal during MZ season?

yeah, my mistake I was seeing 209 and thought the primers not the Ramshot powder. But yeah, try to duplicate with the non-modern primers.Just so you're aware....can't 209 during the specific muzzleloader season, but it would be okay in modern season (deer/elk) and the other animals.

Just take a good look down the barrel with a light to make sure it's not all pitted or corroded.
Absolutely!! ALWAYS bring your drop-in bore light when looking at a black powder weapon!
