Sweet scope!
Only 2 defining forces sacrificed themselves for you:
The American Soldier and Jesus Christ. One died for your freedom, the other for your soul.

My rock,
He trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle.
Psalm 144.1

Nice cannon.  Good for 'pup-ulation' control.

Something I've seen a bit of for scope mounting when using a Picatinny on a .50 is to use two sets of rings (4 rings total).  I think one set is fine, but many owners seem to think they need two.

Have fun.

My dad has the Barrett semi-auto .50 BMG.  It's a kick to take out shooting, other than the $3.50 - $5.00 per round depending on where purchased.  The recoil is light and it seems to be very accurate. 
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!
