I am looking for an inline for Deer and Elk hunting. Currently have a TC New Englander .54 but wanting something with a little more range and something I can but a 1X scope on as the eyes are getting tired.
Found a Knight MK85 in .54 cal for $125.00, stainless steal with composite stock. What do you guys think about this weapon? What sabot bullet combo works well?
Thanks for the info.

Great gun and a great price.
Lots of sabot combos will work. I'd start with a Harvester 54 /45 sabot and 300 Grain Deep Curls. You could look a XTP's and Harvester Scorpions.
You will find a good load with some work.
