RE: A couple more can't hurt

Looks like some nice rifles! I'm interested to hear how the shotgun shoots -be sure to keep us informed. I've always wondered about going with a BP shotgun for turkeys...

That Knight shotgun will do the job on a turkey, but the CVA is what catches my eye.

If it's 1:32 I'll bet it will throw big chunks of lead very accurately! It's a very nice looking rifle, not real fancy, but very functional looking.

RE: A couple more can't hurt

I have not had a chance to even play with them.... I have company this weekend and my sister wanted some odd jobs done at her place today, so I went and got all of that done. Then I came home and saw the mail man had tried to deliver another rifle to me... Yes, that's right I got another one. Its a White .451 Model 97 with a stainless steel barrel. So I have to go to town monday and pick up thatrifle, but then I really do need to control my gun collection a little. I have all the guns I should ever want. Other then a couple custom made flintlock rifles. ...

and .....

Geez Dave, whats the count up to now? Must be several dozen just in muzzleloaders. You just can't lay off those deals can you?

Well I picked up the White M97 stainless steel, laminted stock, .451 caliber today at the post office. It is a beauty without a doubt.. I can not wait to shoot that.

Hey Dave- be sure and post some results of that white so I can see what I missed with this one. It is a good looking rifle and hopefully shoots good for ya. Kerry

RE: A couple more can't hurt

I sure will .... I kind of got this the round about way through you and Indiana Smokepole, but I think it finallyfound a permanent home here. I will start it with 70 grains of Triple Se7en 3f and one of them big conicals and see what it will do. With a 1X scope it should make for an interesting rifle.
