I’ve slowly picked about a 100 of the .50 powerbelts over the past few years. I picked up the Knight vision that was on sale in November. I just slipped an old Tasco World class scope on it the other day with some new weaver rings. It will probably be in the spring before it gets zeroed in. There’s a box of 60gr and a box of 30gr pyrodex pellets too. I hope I can work up a 90 or 120 grain powder load that is tight.

Most of the defenders of powerbelts seem to indicate their sweet spot for accuracy is in the 80 to 125 gr load range.
