I installed a swivel, articulating wall mounts for 55" TV in master bedroom. I used stud finder and bolted it directly to metal stud. Had TV on wall for 5 years until we sold the house. Swiveled TV from sofa on right to bed on left. Articulating allowed TV to move in/out and left right and allowed more swivel to side as I could pull TV farther out from wall. I also cut hole behind TV and added electric outlet with 2 HDMI outlets - connect to outlet and HDMI outlets below on bottom of wall. That way no cables hanging from TV. Cable box and DVD player plugged into bottom HDMI outlets and TV plugged into HDMI outlets behind TV.
