BTW Dan, the flemish dacron string makes for a quieter bow and is easier on your limbs.

NONE!!! 1st my dog escaped when the big brown limo arrived noon yesterday, had to go looking for him, go to town, then went hunting this p.m. w/ Emax, got home had message on dog whereabouts, which was the local bar [like father like son] recovered him into the truck while I had a few much needed and well deserved libations. I did get the holes laid out and center punched to drill and tap for level. Got a 30 pack of 3.2 % and came home to check on you rascals.

Dan, where do you put your level so you can see it while using your scope?

I'm left handed, so on the right hand side, next to machined male dovetail.
On the max, I filed the bottom off of another brand level dunno who's, then drilled and tapped the dovetail, the shoulder of file job fit tight to back edge of dovetail, so one screw would work. Can't twist. Took 15 minutes to get it close, and another hour or so to get it right on the money. A little difference of .005" made the level a half bubble off. I can send ya pics if ya like.

RB, what brand of string silencers are those? I really like that blue one. It matches my eyes so well. LOL. Are they really quite or do they scream when the string is pulled to 185 lbs draw weight? I don't know much about this stuff.
