New scope advice

Thu Jan 28, 2016 12:31 am

Well I ordered a new scope last week and it's now arrived, the sight picture meets and possibly even exceeds my expectatations (the one inch kill zone is reasonably clear at sub 12 ranges and it would probably even be capable on the hft field). The only thing is I'm struggling a bit mounting it to my gun, any advice (constructive only please :? ) would be greatly received :geek:

I believe Meade do a range of picatinny helium mounts for a scope of this tube size starting at 5 inch up to 16 inch. Tim has already put the knock down targets out on the ISS; 2 rabbits, 1 crow and an ET and the same on the Dark Knight Satelite. Plus one of maddog's ranging mildot targets.
Nice scope.....don't forget to put some pictures up :D
