Cold shot is mounted

[Smitty8141]

I mounted a cold shot to my Daystate Safari .25 today. This is my dedicated slug gun. It definitely saves some wear and tear on your scope if you shoot long distance. 

I was concerned that the clicks would not be repeatable, but it seems to work really well. Zeroed the rifle at 50 yards, and was able adjust out to 345 yards with plenty more left. 

This is 325 yards to a steel plate. 


So far I’m impressed with the cold shot. I’ll shoot more tomorrow.

That is pretty cool for sure, but I don't fancy how high the scope is mounted above the barrel. Maybe I'm just old!!

Nice setup....

I agree. That’s the one thing I don’t like. Unfortunately it’s the only option I can find that allows me to shoot close and long distance.

That's SLICK!

The high mount point is OK:
1) There's elevation adjustment (the point of the whole thing)
2) Ergonomics are GREATLY enhanced.

I like it.

So far it’s not bad. Obviously I had to change positions slightly, but not uncomfortable and head isn’t as bent as I thought it would be to get a good sight line through the scope.
