I love the the 52, I shoot 110 gr 777 and 325 ftx.this shoots very accurate and kills deer fast, good luck , l believe you will be impressed

100 gr by volume BH and a 325 FTX.
The only down side is you have to by sabot from knight.

All of the 52’s I’ve owned shot extremely well with Monoflex 250, FTX 325,Hornady 300 HP, & Barnes Originals
I shot 130gr BH209 (by volume) to hit the sweet spot.

I own a few and my favorite muzzleloader caliber. I can stuff any projectile sized for the gray sabot and they will flat out shot

I won Knight’s hometown state ML match a few years ago with my 52. Finished the match with a 50-4x at 200.
My 500gr HP hunting bullet/load.
Then went out and busted a doe-head on at 218y.

That Hollow Point sure did a job on that doe!

Mine shoots great, 110 gr bh209 and 325 gr FTX.

110 gV BH209 and the 350g Barnes expander from Knight. 3 shot one hole groups at 100

My load shoots awesome, unfortunately the deer didn't cooperate this year. Anyone have experience with the 350 red hot on deer?

I have a bighorn in .52. Great rifle. I live in Oregon and we have to use full bore projectiles for hunting. I shoot 52-530i bullet from accurate molds, with 90gr of 777. Thumped a deer pretty hard with it this last season. I enjoy the .52 so much I am building .52 tc renegade.I would also like to purchase a .52 mountaineer.

If I recall correctly Tony Knight said it was his preferred caliber.
