Default Knight Revolution, How is it?

How is the Knight Revolution? Not looking at comparing it to any other muzzle loader, just looking at this weapon and the functionality and quality if it.

Thanks

Used my Revolution II to take two deer this year and hopefully another after X-mas.

Good trigger. Mine has the laminate stock which makes it kind of heavy but it don't recoil much with 300 grainers and 120 grains of T7.

It's a bit longer than a 1100 or 1187 with a slug barrel.

Bought an Omega but sold it. Like the operation of the Revolution II better.

The Revol. is a very good rifle but so is any Knight This will be my next Rifle also.

I am very parshall to the Knights , I own 2 Disc Extremes 1 KRB7 my wife has a Wolverine and like I said the Rev. 2 will be my next for sure. They are super accurate at 100ydsmy Bud has one and he can hold a 1.25" group with it all day long, I shot it and with it not even being sighted in for mr I was shooting a 2" group at 100yds. He shoots 100gr 2fg 777 looseand a 275gr Parker Balistic Extreme good Combo for his gun
Buy a Knight and you can't go wrong.

I personally was let down by the feel of it...I was hoping I liked the fit of it because it was reasonably priced but oh well, I think I can still fina a disc extreme 50 if i poke around...

Disk Extremes are still being made. Cheaper Than Dirt and Natchez both have some models. Knight sells them off their web site but prices are higher than need be...

I love my Knight Revolution. It was the first inline that I bought. One of the big pluses is the safety button as on shotgun. So the is no messing around with the hammer. It pulls up and feels great. It Is shooting tight groups for me as well.

I found the handling of the Knight Revolution to be the main issue for me.

It just handles awkward on the stock, like my wrist has to conform to a position that is not very comfortable.

Other than Knight having a few kinks on the initial production (I don't know of a MFG that does not have a bug here and there)with blowback and the drop triggerassembly, I think they have this resolved.

I have heard mostly that the Revolution is a very good and accurate shooter - Typical for Knight.
