Thread: Olde black powder scope

Bit of fund this week making a long scope for one of my rifle, imbedded a scope within the structure, now to the mounts!

So its a little scope inside a long pipe?

No it a long pipe over a short scope! I had a bushnell.22 scope chief, I bought when I was about your age, long time ago. I milled it to fit after boring out and milling the tube to fit, a little bit of tunnel vision but better than open sights.

That big bronze nut would be interesting if it contacted your brow !

Thought about that, have managed to get a good long eye relief on the scope and probably put a rubber cup on it. Best way is to let someone else try it first

Looks awesome!

You should just do it Angus. Maca and I remember the headlines when the stuff was invented

Lack of gun license and income is a wee bit of a hindrance haha.

Been scoped once shooting uphill, never again and certainly not with that contraption! Would poke me eye out!
