    Good shout Laverdabru with the rifle rest! I fitted a different scope to a little Meteor this morning-even an Indian Goddess with 8 arms would have had her work cut out! Fiddly damned thing kept slipping.... a rifle rest would have sorted that out no problem!

    Scopes/Meteor - don't get me started! Recently bought a 4x40 ex demo Richter, fitted it to a Mk 5, found I couldn't cock it - DOH!
    Will fit it to the older HW35 in due course,

    I use an MTM Gun Vise for servicing and fitting scopes. https://solware.co.uk/mtm-gun-viceA couple of small spirit levels like this are useful from most chain DIY shops, as can be a plumb line - helps get everything 'square' https://www.homebase.co.uk/stanley-pocket-level/12814017.html

    Thanks again for the tips, stuff is coming up that had never occured to me. I was contemplating knocking up a wooden gun stand or buying a cheapo Gamo one.... the Solware one looks like the Rolls Royce of gunstands!
