| Hello, new to Highpower, looking to buy a decent scope and stand for Service Rifle, The Konus 15-45 x65mm looks like it should work and fits my budget. I need advice on a decent stand and accessories if needed. The scope has a rotating band- I don't know how to mount this type. |
| Any of the scope stands from Champions Choice, Champion Shooter Supply, Creedmoor Sports, or Neal Johnson will work fine. They all have three mounting systems and your scope will work with any of them. I prefer the zoom head, but the swivel or saddle mount style will work on your scope as well. I would buy the tripod version over the lightweight bipod style as it will be much harder to tip over than the bipod style. |

that stand looks good for concrete shooting, but i would have problems on some of the surfaces i have shot on. the ground is nowhere near flat good job though i settled on a tripod stand from champ choice years ago. large platform but stable in standing even in the wind |

Well, I went and ordered the 48" classic from Ray-Vin. It is a VERY well made product and easy to use. It came with the cleaning rod fitting which is handy. I mounted a Konus 15-45x65 on it for now, and it seems to work OK for a inexpensive scope. I posted an old target out back at about 150 paces and could see .22 holes in it clearly. I think I'll have to take it down to the beach for further testing. "No lady i'm not a pervert or anything, just trying out my new equiptment and need some markers to judge yardage"  Thanks all for the input. Ron. |
