    Possibly selling a Knight Disc Elite

    I am wanting to purchase a Dream Season Omega. However my wife says I should probably sell my 50. cal Disc Elite first. I bought it 3 years ago on Gun Broker and put it in my safe, since I also purchased another Elite from an individual around the same time. The one I may sell is NIB, has a...

    Omega Hammer Misfire

    My hunting buddy called last night telling me about a Dangerous experience with his 50. Omega yesterday. He on his way to his treestand when he came upon six does and yearlings, one which was standing broadside at 20 yards. He set his stand and pack down, lifted his Omega and upon cocking his...

    XTP .300 VERSUS GOLD DOT .300

    I am planning to use GD .300 grain bullets this year. Last year I had used .300 gr XTP's in front of 100gr 777 with my .50 Omega. Where I hunt in southwest Alabama, I am just a likely to see a hog as a deer. While on a deer hunt last year I shot a sow that dressed at 130# at a distance of 20...

    First Alabama Buck of 2008 Season

    A buddy and I hunted some public land this past weekend on the Tombigbee River in west central Alabama. I finally got an oportunity at a small buck. I was easing around Sunday morning around 9:30 through a travel corridor made up of young saplings. I kept my nose nose facing into a strong...

    Triple Seven ff versus fff accuracy in an Omega

    I have been using 777 in fff grains for two years now with mixed results in my .50 cal omega. I have tried 240 to 300 grain xtp's and shockwaves, but sometimes the groups at 100 yards are 3" to 5". I am thinking if I switch to ff instead of fff, my accuracy may improve. Has anyone found an...

    Are there any Good Deals on Knight Elites anymore?

    I currently own an Omega and like it a lot, but have had trouble getting it tuned in exactly like I'd like. I have been reading how accurate the Disc Elites are for the last year. I know they are discontinued. I am considering a .50 cal Elite, if I can find one at a reasonable price. Does...

    Omega loads 110gr and over?

    I went to the range Saturday with a new Nikon Monarch 3x9x40 on my Omega. I spent two hours trying to get a consistent group using 100-105gr FFF T7. I am going back tomorrow afternoon and was thinking I should try 110gr and 120gr. Oh, I was shooting 240gr T/C green sabots XTP's. I also shot...

    Elite 3200 Problems

    I went to the range yesterday to check the zero on by Omega .50 before leaving Tuesday on an extended muzzleloader hunt, The first few shots were grouping but off to left about 4 inches. I then proceeded to adjust the scope, sometimes it did and sometimes NOT! Other times it would be way too...

    Loading issues with sabots for the T/C .54 Renegade

    I have an old T/C .54 Renegade I bought in 1981 and has been very accurate until recently. Most of the deer I have shot with it have been less than 50 yards. I noticed last year it is shooting off to the right quite a bit. I have been shooting Buffalo Bullets as they are easy to load. I have...

    Thermacell Mosquito Repellent

    I was wondering if anyone had tried the Thermacell mosquito repellent that's on the market, specifically while whitetail hunting. We have tons of mosquitos down in south Alabama and would like to use it, if it does not give off an odor that scares deer away. Thanks TM

    .44 versus .452 300 xtp

    I have found the .44 300 XTP at Wally World, but not the .452. Many on this board think the .452 is so much better than the .44. I was wondering what would be so bad about the .44 cal. I am talking of course of a .50 cal and I shoot an Omega. I used a .45 300 Hornady ballistic tip to hunt...

    New Omega had double success on first hunting trip!

    Well, I finally broke down after 25 years of shooting a T/C .54 cal Renegade and bought an Omega two weeks ago. I put a Bushnell 3200 Elite scope on it and sighted it in with .300 grain Hornady SST's loaded with 110 grains of 777, FFF. I had an old high school buddy come over to Alabama from...
