Knight has always been top notch. Tony Knight really created a winner. I still got my Wolverine from about 1993. Has been upgraded to musket cap. Always accurate and goes bang. Nice compact little gun. I miss using it. Killed many deer with it. Have since went to high performance smokeless mz's, and no going back now.

Any idea what a stainless model with camo stock is worth? I bought one several years ago and have never had it in the woods. I just don't have the time or desire to get out late-season.

Yes on the Savage 10ml2, but mine has been upgraded to custom 45cal PacNor barrel. Also have a Rem 700ml with same barrel, but heavier profile for stouter loads.
Savage smokeless are all over the place in price. Their problem is the factory 50cal barrels were very hit and miss on accuracy, due to varying quality control, poor machining, tooling chatter, etc. Not good when shooting sabots. Most can be made accurate enough to kill deer.
The custom barrel guns can more than double the range in accuracy. We now use 45 call bullets resized to fit the barrel, so no plastic sabots to be the weak link.
PM if you got a price in mind to sell. They (Sav 10ml2) dont need to go thru an FFL to transfer, since not a center fire action. Mine came in the mail from Natchez.

I have a .50 cal Disc Extreme, that I bought from Plainfield Galyans, probably around 2002 or so. So it`s an older Knight, made when the Knight family had it. Very good, very dependable rifle.

Out of the box, some of the very best triggers too. A buddy has had several thru the years and I have always been impressed. Once BH209 came out, they only got better. I have never seen a Knight that didnt shoot exceptional. I could easily have hunted my entire life with one and never regret it.

My first inline was a Knight T5.
I had it for 8 or 9 years and it killed deer well.
I then moved up to a TC Omega. Still have it but I don’t use it much.

I have a Knight Wolverine that is over 20 years old. Still use. It has taken a lot of deer.

I have 2 BK-85's, deer count with them, too many, lost count, in the 100's. Thats between several of us using them. It shoots so good, but still want a new CVA.
