.45 bolt for a .50

[jerseyjimk]

I have a .50 cal orginal disc Knight rifle((Master hunter)),will a .45 cal bolt fit.I have the chance to buy a .45 extreme for a cheap price.I really dont need another muzzy,but if the bolt does fit,I might try BH209 in my gun when I convert it.

Yes, that should work. The 'Extreme' bolt would have to go with an 'Extreme' breech plug. I also shot B209 in my 'Original' Knight without issues, orange primer disc with a CCIM primer. It had some blowback though.

If the price was right, I'd say yes to that 45 cal. I got 2218 FPS with my 45 last week with a 195 grn Barnes & 110 grains of B209.
