BartP I did not mean to offend I did not know it was possible to pay that much for a sling that why I asked I thought that was the price for a sling and a hand stop. Sorry if you took offence.

And if the top shooters all used blue colored sights you you think everyone would be using blue sights. It has to work for you if you feel good about a using a rubber eye cup and YOU think it gives YOU an advanage go ahead and use it. THE TOP SHOOTER FOUND WHAT WORKS FOR THEM DON'T DO AS THEY JUST B...

Ray-Vin Stand opinnions

I have belooking for a scope stand and have run across a company named Ray-Vin that sell what I think as high end stands with 1 inch tubes. Do you think this would be overkill for 10m since the shooting lanes are so tight? The base on this thing is over 24 inches.

I do not think you can go wrong with that rifle choice. I bought the Ans 8002 S2 a couple of months ago if is a fine rifle also If I had to do it over again I would have spent the extra $ and got the 9003 S2
