Man I really love this Knight Disc Elite rifle. I killed two deer Saturday with it using 250 Barnes Expanders. It was the last day of our (3day) buck or doe early muzzle-loader season then it's doe only until 10/28.
My Brother and I left for our eastern shore lease on Friday after the rain ended. We got there at about 3:00pm and rushed to our stands but neither of saw any deer that evening, probably due to the heavy winds. We headed to back out to our stands well before sunrise Saturday and the weather was perfect (Calm and Chilly). I set up 4 scent wicks doused with Doe Estrous Urine along my main shooting lane, one at about 90 yards and another every 20 yards all the way back to my stand. At first light I started giving a couple soft doe grunts and low and behold I spotted a deer coming down the trail heading towards wy scent wicks. He was a spike and I decided since it was so early I'd wait for a better buck. and I watched him walk from about 300 yards all the way to the second wick (about sixty yards from me) sniffing the air and the two wicks like I couldn't believe. When he got to the second wick he turned and headed off into the thick stuff, I guess he new it was a ploy by this time or maybe he winded me.
But about a half hour later I saw the same scenario replay again at first I thought it was him coming back for another wiff. But when this deer got to about 100 yards I noticed he had a better rack (small six but better) and I decided he was going home with me. Just before he put his nose to the first scent wick at 90 yards. I put the cross hairs of my Mueller Multi Shot on his left chest (quartering towards) and squeezed one off. When the smoke cleared he was gone but I had total faith in my Knight because I know how well it shoots.
I waited about an hour and walked to the shot spot and he was a few feet to my left behind a deadfall, he just made one leap off the main trail and he was done..... (No Exit but I never found the bullet it must have been in the guts.)
While I was gutting him out I heard a shot pretty close by, I new it had to be my brother. It was him, he shot a spike maybe the same one I let walk, I'm not sure but i looked like him.
That same evening we went back out and just before dark I spotted a small doe coming through. She was about 75 yards broadside and I hit her just behind the right front shoulder, she fell in her tracks. (pass through)
Two deer (and could have been three) on my second day in the woods this year. Man, maybe I should go play the lottery.
