Wolf, no doubt. Mine likes 80 grains of Blackhorn 209 powder, whatever shotgun primer, Harvester ribbed sabots, and 250 grain SST or XTP bullets by Hornady. It shoots 1"-1.5" 5 shot groups easily. Last time i had it out it printed 12 shots into 1.6".

I currently own both.  The Knight is a .45 and likes 200gr spire points over 110 gr of Pyro RS best.  It will eat anything I've fed it with the right powder charge.  Actually I own a new style Optima (not the Wolf) with the Bergara barrel.  It likes 250gr spire points over 100gr of Pyro RS.  With these 2 loads I'm splitting hairs for accuracy between the 2.  The Knight shoots just a fuzz better.  The Optima is my rifle of choice, only because the new style breech plug keeps it near spotless after many, many shots.  The Knight has a lot of blow back thru the red discs, but I did an experiment and it was nearly all from the primer.  The Knight with the current loading has a 25/175yd dead zero, the Optima, a few yards over 150.  150 is the farhtest I've shot it and it hit about 1 1/2" high with that load.  I can hit a paper plate at 200 with the Knight and would bet money I could with the Optima with out any adjustments.  Again, I use the Optima ONLY because it is so clean!  Both will shoot 3/4MOA (1 small ragged hole with the Knight on a good day) at 100.

walmart sells remington 700s and savage rifles, along with thompson centers. Those are at the good walmarts though, ours doesnt carry crap! I swear our town gets the left over, returned stuff.

 I'm a Knight guy, so maybe I'm biased. Mine are tweaked a bit, trigger easily adjusted, Lehigh breech plug to about eliminate blowback, 'QR' pin added for easy bolt removal if needed. That's my vote.
