Hi all you'uns! I have a TC Black Diamond and an Omega and I can't get either one to like powerbelts. Shooting two 50 grain pyrodex pellets they group about 4" at 100 yards. The sabots group about half that size but I really like the idea of a true .50 caliber hole. You guys got any ideas how to tighten up the powerbelts? :help

I hear ya, better a .44 hole than a .50 miss! Thanks for the comeback.

Throw the Powerbelts away. I lost at least 8 animals due to PB failure. I am a decent shot, too. Switched to 250gr T/C Shockwaves and have had great results since. Even put a buck int e FL registry with them
