    Knight UL and front sight help

    Winchman - This is what you need to do - makes all the difference in the world. Take the red optic out and put a green one in!

    Protecting ignition during NW hunt

    After reading a couple of responses - I really should have asked - What rifle are you using - an inline or a side hammer? Although with the response I gave you it really wouldn't matter. If you decide to go with the capper let me know so I can provide you with some information about adjusting...

    Protecting ignition during NW hunt

    First thing I would tell you is to use #11 Mag caps or RWS Dynamit Noble 1075+ caps combined with a #11 nipple from You will also need a #11 capper to install the cap on the nipple. With the capper you need to press the nipple on to the nipple post to expand the convolutions around the...

    Muzzleloader - Help Wanted

    Remember I am totally biased Knight Ultra Lite. I started out with a the NECG-Weaver rear peep sight and the front sight was switched out to a Williams ramp setup.

    Knight UL and front sight help

    longrangelead, I would highly recommend the Bull Shop 400 grn LGP This bullet was recovered from this animal shot at 180 yards. I use these MMP Ballistic sub-bridges under the bullet to keep the powder from melting the bottom of the bullet and sealing the gas behind the bullet,

    Another trip to the Dinger Farm

    I think I would suggest - that they are designed for the longer heavier bullets that are coming on the market today versus the older 1-30 twist. Also remember, Doc White 45's were 1-20 and even the original Knight Super DISC was 1-20. The reall problem with the 1-20 of that period of time was...

    Another trip to the Dinger Farm

    I have ran the bullet and load through the chrono and plgged the information into a ballistic sheet shot with 120 gr. Vol of BH. The two new ULite 45's I have are both 1-20 twists. One is a Nitride version with a BESTILL 2 piece rear sealing BP and the other is a SS with the Lehigh plug. I...

    Another trip to the Dinger Farm

    Nothing great to report - just another good outing with a Knight Different rifle this time - I took my Knight Stainless Steel 45 cal fast twist. The goal of the trip was to confirm that the rifle was sighted in with the Lehigh .400x230CF-HP Brass bullet. And a second goal was to load a couple...

    Idaho Bull Load Development

    I know I should lessen the load when shooting lead, but with Dan's NASA lube I have never had a leading problem. I do also use a MMP Ballistic Sub-Bridge under the bullet, to keep the powder from melting the bottom of the bullet. You can see the impression of the sub-base on the bottom of this...

    CVA Optima with Williams Peep Not Enough Adjustment?

    I really wish I could show you the difference with a camera shot - but I am not that good of a photographer! This is another pic but still not what I would like to show. But you can see the clays in the background and the green fiber makes it is easy to find stuff down range to shoot. Even...

    CVA Optima with Williams Peep Not Enough Adjustment?

    If you get the Williams - I am guessing they will come with a red fiber optic. I switch the red fiber out for a green fiber - makes the contrast for hunting excellent for me. This is the front sight with a red fiber and this is with green

    45 Nitride Shoot - Dinger Farm

    Got a chance today to make my way to the farm for shooting - it is not raining here today! That is somewhat of a change. I have had this rifle out a couple of times since I got the rifle, but this trip was to be a final sight in. I was shooting the Lehigh .458x260CF-HP sabotless. The bore in...

    Washington Complian sights for a ML with scope mounts

    NECG-Weaver Peep The Williams peep is exactly what I prefer Along with a Williams front sight combination... With this set up when you sight through it - it kinda appears like looking through a 1X scope!

    Getting starting w/ ID ML

    Shoot! I do not see them listed either on their bullet list. I would have a hard time believing they do not have that bullet any longer. In your email did you ask specifically about the 400 LGP? Think I will send Tina an email and ask also. They do still offer the 400LGP Just sent you a PM

    Getting starting w/ ID ML

    Yes the CCI's will work very on the Spitfire. Finding primers or percussion caps they day can really be a difficult project. I keep hoping by late summer things will return to somewhat normal. Getting to and a response from BullShop Dan is sometimes a long process. Dan does not do anything...

    Getting starting w/ ID ML

    Personally I would suggest 80 to 90 gr by vol of T7-2f This a recovered LGP form an elk shot at 180 yards. Again my suggestion would be a .503x400 LGP form Bull Shop and since you will be using a lead conical I would also suggest a MMP 50 cal Ballistic Sub-Bridge under the bullet to seal...

    Long Range Peep Sight latest and greatest?

    For myself and myself only - the best and most functional open sight combination I have used remains the Williams FP Peep and Williams Streamlined Ramp with fiber optic bead (which I do change to a green optic) and the Fire sight hood. Looking through this combination really mimics what you...

    Return Trip - Rock Pit with ULite 45 SS

    Sunday was a great day here on the Idaho Palouse!!! We deserved it! Decided to take the new SS ULite to the pit to complete the sight in process. So, no great message here other than a great afternoon of shooting for FUN! It was a Sunday and I knew I was taking a chance going out there in the...

    .50 cal muzzleloader bullet to bore vs sabot

    I have never used that bullet so I really cannot comment on it. I would tell you that I have been totally spoiled by the Lehigh CF bullets, but Wilson Combat has bought them out and I am not sure when/if they will offer the CF line of bullets. My next choice would be the Barnes Expander line...
