I've hunted exclusively w/my TC .50 Omega for the last 9 years now. What impresses me the most is its knockdown power. I've now killed 20 deer with it and all have dropped within 20 yards, including a couple 200 pounders. I hit a doe too low in the brisket once and lost her, and I simply missed one other. I don't load it up on powder either, usually just 100 grains of Triple 7 or Jim Shockey's Gold. I also switch between Powerbelts and TC Shockwaves.
