50 yds? I'm not sure it would be noticable much at that distance.

Check out Wilderness Instructor belts. Unless you want leather........

I have a buddy sending me a 2 1/2" one with 5 stitches and a black titanium buckle as a belated wedding/early baby present. It'll be great for holding up my G&G double retention holster. I want to get a 1 3/4" leather belt to change it up a little though.

Thanks for the suggestion.

So at 50 yards I shouldn't worry about wind and just put it on center target?

Thanks for the help, I am a complete noobie when it comes to scopes.

I got it zeroed to about 1 inch left of center with the wind. Should it be on target with no wind or was I overthinking it?

I seriously doubt it'll effect it 2 MOA. Maybe 1/4 at most. That heavy of a bullet, I would have just done a standard zero.

Depends on the wind. Are we talking 30mph or someting more like 5-8mph?

It was pretty windy. The way the range is laid out a stiff wind comes in from the right. I'll bet it was a good 20-25mph.

Hey Greg are you thinking about getting one of those LMT's??

At 50 yards though I think the velocity of the round would be good enough to to counter any wind.

For 944.95 there is no thinking involved. I printed off the form 4 earlier today.

I think the difference might be measurable if its really strong, but its surely isn't an inch by any means. I'm not sure how windy it would have to be to push it. An inch does seem like a lot even if it was only 20mph winds.

Good for you. I may look into it in a few months. I have to get my NFA trust going first.

I'm so excited. My best friend is getting one too.

I wonder if they do flat top uppers. I looked on their site and couldn't even find the NFA stuff.
