E,
<br>
<br>I really do not like the scout setup. It throws the balance way off and second I have taught myself to shoot with both eyes open, even with a setting at 4x. In that situation I like a scope to present a clean sight picture with no visable ring. It took me a while to figure out how to adjust the dipoter (sp?) so the eye lining up behind the scope did not try and change focal point.
<br>
<br>After several years like this I find that I shoot much better in hunting situations and have much better confindence and take a lot less time to get to targert. The scout set up just does not do it for me. I understand why J. Cooper wanted it, but my day of beind a forward scout in anybodys mil operation are long past. I want balance and sight picture. But thanks for the thought.
<br>
<br>p.s. you will have to get some nice digital photos of that 25-284 of yours and let us at the fire see what you have been talking about.
