I also threw in the Side Wheel for good measure at the last minute. http://www.pyramydair.com/s/a/Leapers_Accushot_SWAT_Side_Wheel_For_Range_Estimation_80_mm/874 I realize its more scope than I'll need the vast majority of the time, but I have family members who have large stretches of open land and will give long range target shooting a try occasionally. _________________ Philip RWS 350 .22 w/Leapers 4-16x50 Crossman 1377   Posted: Thu Feb 18, 2010 1:53 pm oddtodd Silver Status Member Joined: 30 Dec 2008 Posts: 2029 Location: Richmond, IN USA That sounds like a good setup to me. I liked the wheel on my scope. It makes it really nice. I can zoom in to the tab on the top of a coke can with mine at like 20 yards. It's fun believe me! _________________ Airguns: Two starlings talking "Larry, did you hear that? Larry??

It has to have a side focus, not a focus ring on the bell.... Bob _________________ Dominion Marksman Silver Shield - 5890 x 6000 in 1976, and downhill ever since!

I traded mine off a while back, but I am 80% sure it was a leapers. _________________ Airguns: Two starlings talking "Larry, did you hear that? Larry??

Bob Figures...I even called Pyramyd Air to confirm it would fit _________________ Philip RWS 350 .22 w/Leapers 4-16x50 Crossman 1377   Posted: Thu Feb 18, 2010 2:14 pm rsterne Moderator Joined: 15 Jan 2008 Posts: 2998 Location: Coalmont, BC I believe that particular ring is for the side focus "SWAT" series scopes.... They also make them for their top of the line side focus 8-32 x 56 etc.... I think all the scope that are side focus are 30mm tubes but not positive about that.... The side wheel is used to make a side focus scope easier to adjust.... Most FT guys mark the wheel so that they can read it by just opening their other eye and not moving the gun from shouder....

I'm assuming its the "Side wheel rheostat"...whats that _________________ Philip RWS 350 .22 w/Leapers 4-16x50 Crossman 1377   Posted: Thu Feb 18, 2010 2:26 pm oddtodd Silver Status Member Joined: 30 Dec 2008 Posts: 2029 Location: Richmond, IN USA That is for an led usually red and green to light up your crosshairs. I've got a centerpoint like that but I never use the light. My shooting area is well enough lit to not need it. _________________ Airguns: Two starlings talking "Larry, did you hear that? Larry??

FYI, there are two different size sidewheel hubs, and two different size wheels (80 & 100mm)....just to make things even more confusing....
