RE: Range Finder mount and Video?
Jason, never got around to testing a video cam on rf mount, mainly because I don't have one. Can't help y'all there, but Wally World will take anything back, lol.I can tell y'all this. the prototype rf mount I sent Excal did not have the rubber shock absorber on it, they came up w/ that. I used the cheapest rf Bushnell sells, and clocked over 1200 shots w/ it installed on my Emax.I lost the rf and a prototype mount on a hog hunt in La. last year, the ring screw came loose on the dang thing on back of 4 whlr and it was a gone pecan. You normally have to pop scope off to install 3rd ring for rf mount, however there is one brand of rings out there at again, Wally World that have two piece tops that will articulate onto scope w/o removal. I've found you can take scope off and on and only be a click or two off anyhow, no biggie. I got the 2" velco [Canadian invention, btw] at Wally World, they got it in 6' lengths in sewing depts, should be enough to last a few seasons, lol. If any one does try a video cam on it, i'd be very interested in the results.
Edited to add; if you are going to try a cam on it, you might want to use a 30mm ring vs 1" [25 mm] and put a rubber wrap around scope between it and ring. The diff between 1" and 30 mm is about .200" total or .100" on a side.
