"DADDY"
Hello,
I'm pretty new to this forum but I've hunted for ~ 20 years. Right now I'm getting very interested in muzzleloaders but have no previous experience with them.
I have decided that I will buy a knight but I'm confused between the models. Even looking at their website I'm confused. I apologize up front for coming here and asking such rookie questions but it seems like people here have a lot of knowledge and experience so I thought I'd ask.
I see the disc extreme, but there's 2 different versions. I also don't know what this "western" thing is as I've only hunted with bows, rifles and a revolver.
So I see three possible muzzleloaders for me, the ultra light, mountaineer and the disc extreme. But I really don't know what configuration makes the most sense for me to start out.
Open sights or scope? 209? Full plastic? I don't want to buy a cheap muzzleloader only to buy a knight later, I have the funds set aside so it's not. Major issue.
I'm hoping somebody can give me a basic rundown of the 3 models mentioned and the advantages and disadvantages of each as well as some input on the ignition systems.
I know there's a guy here with lots of knight rifles and tons of experience, I'm hoping I'm not bothering anybody too much and that you all can help me get my feet wet with muzzleloading.
Thanks in advance!!!
