RE: Knight Muzzleloaders
This is my first Knight and I love it. It is the Vision model and it has the new breech plug and has no real blow back that I can see. I have shot my NEF Sidekick and really loved it for it's accuracy, but it had a lot of blow back and it would burn my scope. None of that with the Knight Vision. I will beusing theKnight Vision as my primary ML this next season.
As to the Leupold, it is equal to or better then theNikon Omega. With the Leupold you set up your own loads, not just the ones the Nikon folks tell you to. But one of the most important things about the Leupold over the Nikon, CLARITY!!! They both run about the same in price, but you would do well to look into theLeupold.
All I can say is that I am perfectly happy.

I really like my KRB7. Shoots 300gr XTPs with Crushed Rib sabots, 2 pyrodex pellets, and w209 primer well all day. The only down fall is I can't shoot BH209 because of the breech plug issues.

There are loads other than 3 pellets that will shoot the same trajectory. For instance 120gr of 777 FF and 120gr of Blackhorn, as well as the fact the all you have to do is plot where you are hitting with a bit of practice at each range which should be done any way.
As for the Clarity, there are different opinions and that may well be due to the difference peoples eyes. I have some thing like 25 scopes including a Leopold for me the better Bushnell and Nikon are the most clear I have two Nikon Omega scopes one on a Triumph and one on an Endeavor if I could find any thing better then it would be on the Endeavor.
