10,000 Rounds With No Loss Of Accuracy!
Here's a look at one Knight .50 caliber "Long Range Hunter" that now has more than 10,000 rounds through it...and which is still capable of putting 50 shots through one ragged 1.5-inch center-to-center hole!
I have been hunting with muzzleloaders since 1964. I still shoot a lot of other firearms (modern rifles, modern handgun, black powder cartridge rifles) but today hunt almost exclusively with a muzzleloader. Back in 1964, I took my first muzzleloader whitetail (with a .45 Dixie "Kentucky" longrifle)...and last year (2008), I took my 317th muzzleloader whitetail (shooting a very modern in-line rifle and load). Since taking up muzzleloader hunting 45 years ago, at age 15, I've also harvested close to 200 other big game animals with frontloaders - including elk, moose, caribou, mule deer, pronghorn, black bear, several truckloads of wild hogs, and free-ranging Texas exotics.
