You can say that again NutterBane! I love my 25 cal condor SS. It is light, accurate and packs a punch...... but if i get a shot at 15 yards or less and God forbid at an angle up a tree, by the time I check my range card and decide where to shoot due to the angle ,the squirrel is back in his den wearing a smoking jacket relaxing. That gun was really made for longer range shots. I will never get rid of it but wish I thought of scope height before purchase.
