Looking to buy

Hello, I have a pachmayer range box that had the old type of scope mounted in it but looking for a height adjustable version since I'm 6-2 it messes up my position to have to crouch down to look thru it. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

Simply put get a spotting scope mount similar to the Gil Hebard and have someone, maybe yourself, make a longer Aluminum bar. I did one long ago for a fellow shooter that was 6'-8". I like the Gil Hebard type with the serrated washers to prevent movement.

Never heard of that one I'll Google it thanks !!

Run a search for Scope Mount and you will come to this recent thread:- it is possible that the vendor might be willing to make an extra ling bar 

New build! Replacement Pachmayr Scope Mount - Custom machined to fit drill holes - pin held instead of friction

It amazes me how few folks bother to actually search for things on this wonderful forum. Laziness, I guess.

Try scope +mount

Not sure who your calling lazy but if it’s me your out of line and I’ll leave it there unless you’d like to continue the conversation?

Whoops, my mistake.

Tried to offer some helpful guidance, but obviously not appreciated, and engendered a confrontational response instead. OK, sorry, my bad.

Calling someone lazy that’s looking for help is not what I consider gentleman like manners by the way I did search but when you don’t know what it is your looking at them you ask for help !

I don't think asking other members of a forum dedicated to bullseye (precision) shooting help on selecting gear needed to shoot the matches or practice is wrong! I used Gil Hebard type simply because he passed away so it may not be available in new condition. Doing so I didn't recommend other similar type makes just the style. Weather indexing the angle by friction, pin or serrations is up to the user, I think serrations is best and pin next best. However that's my opinion!

You might also consider getting a scope with an angled neck that you can look down into instead of stooping and looking straight forward. I added an L-bracket to mine so it can mount on the bottom. You can also look at camera gear for brackets, arms, etc. They are the same mount and there's a lot of it out there.

What did you expect thanks for calling me lazy ?

Enough of that.
Search function provides a wealth of information, but few take the time to use it properly.

You can close this thread I found what I was looking for somewhere else very easy without the b.s. here I would never treat anyone like some did here even if I thought they were lazy or a pain in the ass I sleep well at night do you ?

Searching the web will provide quite a bit of results some good some Bad! Recommendations from those like us with the same interest is quite a bit better! Evey advertiser claims his product is best but those that have witnessed, tested or use the product can give an honest evaluation. I have searched items only to find information I want is not provided, possibly in this topic length is not provided nor is the possibility that a request to increase length is possible! Most of these items are being advertised by a dealer not the maker so it's not possible to get information on extending length if needed! Unless the item is made by a small company I doubt modification is possible. I think RoyDean makes a mount and can increase length if needed but others can't. In addition a good used mount can be purchased and altered by someone having the skill to do it. Possibly available from a member of this forum that has a mount they no longer need or use.

I just got off the phone with an acquaintance of Gil’ s from the camp Perry days he has about 6 brand new scope mounts of Gil’s so I’m good to go and I won’t be selling any of them on here .

We are all so thankful you found them!

Locked!  


We are better than this!

Unlocked to announce that I fulfilled Muzzlestuffer’s request to delete his account. I advised him not to, but he said “No thanks!”

He may be thin skinned, but cheezlouise! These were out of line!
