    Adjustable Inclination Scope Bases

    I've been looking at these for 22 RF "long range" projects, particularly the less expensive options like the https://www.eliteoptical.co.uk/sport...elevation.html and the https://utahairguns.com/eaglevision-...rings-2-piece/, theres also a FX (the airgun makers) one as well.

    Has anyone else tried them or the like??

Why not just use the elevation on your scope ....like you have done for ever .
    I think he want More elevation to be available for use

    I have the FX no limit scope rings on my PCP, They have been solid as a rock so far!! And have sorted my elevation issue, as i can dial my shots using more of the scopes elevation!! The other options would be Eagle vision or Hawke

    Yup - most modestly priced scopes (like you might use on a 22) don't have enough adjustment (25 or 30 Mils) even on a slanted base to get "right out there" for competitions . . . .

    All the ones I listed are alloy (and cost about 1/10 of the Eratac, which is very nice but overkill for a 22 I feel) but hopefully should be up to the "careful" use they'd get on a Competition 22 . . .

    Sorry was suppose to say Sportsmatch not Hawke, but Hawke do make some too. I didn't even check out the links in the first post before i replied.
    I had the Sportsmatch on order but had to wait 2 months then found that the FX ones were available so went with them. Like I say solid as a rock!!

    "out there" with a 22 is probably anything past 120M . . . . haha rule of thumb is shooting a 22 is the equivalent of shooting a CF at 3 times the distance, so at 22 target at 300 is about the same as 900 with a CF . . . and the Sparrowhawk 22 comp gets out to 350 ish if the weather is reasonable!

    I managed the 354m tgt at sparrowhawk with the weaver grand slam by holding over the target a fair way. Will be much easier now with a Titan 5-25x56 and rhe FX rings
