Ironhead it is in the right price range... I personally just ordered the thumbhole stock for my Knight Bighorn, I bought it several years back and the thumbhole was not an option. Our party has been through all the muzzle loaders and if there is any advice I can give you it's to get a stainless model no matter what you choose. They hold up so much better. The blue'd ones just can't take the weather and corrosive powder well.

Also, BigTULE a little advice... I used to shoot 100-110 grains of pyrodex and got away from it because it is so much harder to clean your gun. I've switched to 150 grains of the Triple 7 powder with the 295 grain Powerbelt bullet and in the 10 years of muzzleloading never seen such a tight pattern at 100 yards. All my buddies but 1 shoot the Bighorns with this load... Plus I do agree that the CCI Musket Caps are the hottest out there.

For those of you still shooting the #11 caps do yourself a favor and spend the money on a musket nipple. You'll thank yourself in the long run. When we first started we had many misfires and delayed fires with those.

Another thing, I buy new Powder and caps every year and have never had a misfire since doing so.
