Yes it's built on a 700 short action footprintYou seem to be in the know on a lot about the Paramount. Will it fit right into a Rem 700 SA stock?

They are over 8lbs bare and the 30" tube will gain you very little vs a 26" MRX. The CVA 45 barrels are also a bit on the large side. Over .452 so this can make sabotless selection more time consuming and the Harvester light blue will load very easy. They are .454 loaded OD so you will need around a .402 bullet to snug it up if you use sabots.Found a CVA Accura V2 LR local. Anyone have any experience with it?
How much do you think I would have to take out of the barrel channel on that stock to put a Paramount in it.Just a FYI too. You can buy B-14 stocks directly and they look really good for the money.

This Paramount pro looks to have 1 1/16 inch channel so it's going to take a bunch to open it.How much do you think I would have to take out of the barrel channel on that stock to put a Paramount in it.
I would be fine with a rotary phone. I have a work phone ( only because they make me carry it) but I use my land line at home for all personal calls. And this I pad is from a place I worked and the owner shot himself at the shop, so they told me to keep it, other wise I would not be on here either. I can’t do many things on here as he has a pass word or something that I don’t know, so it’s very limited. If I want to shoot something with a scope and over 150 yards I prefer my 6.5 or 7mm. But yes, these are just my preferences. But muzzle loading hunting seasons are ( were ) based on primitive weapons, and had a separate season, usually extended. But now they might as well be classed as firearms and used during the regular firearms season. And do away with muzzle loading season.For accuracy between the 50 and 45cal rifles................
The 45 is hands down more accurate, which can easily be verified by all the major NMLRA events for modern inline rifles. IIRC the last time a 50cal won at a modern inline event was in 2014 and the rifle was a BP Xpress. It took overall in a match called In-line Hunter. Every match or major event held since, has been won by 45cal rifles.
You're just set in your ways and that's ok too. Other than the "feel", what's different loading your side lock percussion or the Knight? They both load from the muzzle and both use an ignition source. Just set in your ways
Ya just have to imagine what it would be like having to use a rotary phone to communicate, rather than a "smart phone" or a computer like we are doing now. LOL
I fully support any and all firearms for hunting and shooting. If I can encourage and help a youngster to the shooting sports, it doesn't matter rather its a side lock or modern custom 1,000yd muzzleloader.
Add up the cost of bottom metal and then add pillars to a Rem700 tuperware stock. Then see if the difference is worth your time to open up the B-14 barrel channel.How much do you think I would have to take out of the barrel channel on that stock to put a Paramount in it.
Ive used a bare primer bolt and a old FPJ bolt in mine. Ive dropped the barrel in both a Elite stock and a TH stock. My trigger is a older Vehr 3 screw target model. A simple way to lift the barrel in the stock channel is add a small shim under the FORKS ONLY on the recoil lug. This will raise the barrel slightly and lower the action.I emailed Knight to confirm their 1-2 week timeline for a .45 barrel and they said that was correct so I ordered one. I also ordered the Lehigh breach plug. Hopefully it all fits nice in my UL stock. I figured with a bunch of other expenses around this hunt and my wifes elk hunt this would be the best route.
I am looking at bullets from Parker, Arrowhead, and Pittman. Any suggestions?
Look at Fury Custom Bullet also. They have 40s in 240gr and 250gr if you can use sabots. One of the guys on the MML forum really likes the Fury .401 240gr OT in his Knight 45 1-20. Breaking 2100fps with that bullet should be easy. Im hoping for more like 2200fps.I am looking at bullets from Parker, Arrowhead, and Pittman. Any suggestions?
Parker BEs are .015 and so is the Emax. The BE is super easy to get to shoot in mine. Never tried the Emax though.The parkers have a pretty thick jacket.
