I tried one of the base adapters to low weaver mounts and found them to set the scope too high - too many things cobbled together --- BTW , the adapter that I got was from EAW in Europe. Ralph Martini here in Canada is a great help in getting me those things from Germany.

Re the Dr. Optic -- i like it alot up to 100 yds or so. At 100 yds it gets a bit iffy - it becomes a point it at the target and shoot. There is not a lot of precision markesmanship at that point. At 50yds or so for running animals it can't be beat. My eyes are not as good with peep sights (my favorite) as they once were - so this is the very next best thing.
