Let me know when a Paramount is in the top 3 at Friendship. So far the last appearance was a failure and the LRMP modules leak as bad or worse than a Knight bare primer system. Mountaineers have taken that prize many times. Lehigh bare primer setup is around $31 plus shipping. Bestill bushing plug is about $80. Both are virtually blowby free when installed correctly and made from 17-4 SS.
Not really sure what your post even had to do with me though? Not sure why i was quoted at all actually within the context of your post? The Paramount was never mentioned. This is a Knight topic.
Im just thrilled i can get a 45 1-20 action if i choose to do so. I have all the other parts on hand. $339 sounds way better to me than more than twice that much for stuff i dont need.
I know where i can get a like new Mountaineer 45 1-20 TH stock with Seekins rings, a Murphy custom 20moa base and Lehigh plug right now for $750. Thats nearly $300 for that base and rings new. Ive seen the video of that rifle smacking a gong at 600 yards so i know its a shooter.
Has anyone even competed with a Paramount at Friendship, yet? Or anywhere for that matter? If so, who? The rifles have only been available for 4-5 months. Knight is obviously sponsoring the majority of competitors in the inline competitions, just like Mathews and Mission do in archery / crossbow competitions, possibly paying a contingency payments to all the placers?
So you think the Paramount Ignition is worse than the Knight 500 RFPJ ignition, the only way it comes from the factory? The Paramount has the optional factory 209 primer ignition as well.
I hope you don't have any grand delusions that those Knights competing and placing in the top 3 at Friendship are factory stock rifles?
Pro shooter means paid shooter in my part of the world.
Maybe you should give CVA a year or two to buy off a couple of the top shooters, then let's see what happens. They've already got some competition shooters that work for Bergara USA custom rifles that could do it. Whether or not they will, is another question.
Looks like a few are already getting a little paranoid that might just happen!
How many Nula's, Remingtons, Ultimate Firearms, T/C's, Cooper's, Savages, Swinglocks, Whites, H&R/NEF's, MDM's, Gonics, Traditions, Pedersoli's, Bad Bull's, Peifers, Michigan Arms Co, Lenartz's, Marksbury's, Khanke's, Lymans, Winchester's, Navy Arms, Rugers, Rossi's, LHR's, Woodman Arms, Gunwerks, Austin & Hallecks, Palmetto Arms, Ft Worth Arms, Brolin Arms, Norinco's San Pan Specials are placing at Friendship? How many are competing?
They've all made Inline Rifles.
Sorry if I forgot anyone.
