    I've found it really useful for getting the adjustable butt pad on my fx spot on for me. It's a really simple idea and I know a few people have commented on the cost but it's well made and for me money well spent.

    I have to agree mate...I was a bit sceptical at first, and then it took a bit of getting use to, as it really started to highlight errors that one can make with scope alignment - especially when you get a bit tied/ lazy after a long days shooting...that's normally the point at which I give up and go home! But this helped me to raise my game for the final few shots of the day - and really helped

    In short - recommended! (though for 20 quid P+P should be free in my opinion)

    I tried the largest size available but did not feel I could fit it comfortably to the eyepiece on my Hawke Eclipse.

    The rubber boot woulkd just about have stretched over the very end but it would have been a struggle to get it over the locking rings. I felt I would have had to get the positioning of the cover absolutely right 1st time as it would have been too tight for any fine adjustment afterwards, or the locking rings might haev moved whilst trying to twaek the cover.

    Pity cause I was sold on the idea and the cover was made of quality materilas.

    I'd try again if they extended the range to include a larger version.

    This may appear a silly question buddy but have you tried warming the rubber up prior to fitting?? It may make it easier to fit onto your ocular bell.

    I know what you mean about getting it positioned just right, played havoc with my mind too!
