@Furandfeatherdisaptching-814 I was tempted by a digital day/night scope but I'd rather spend the money on a decent day scope then nv add on. I'm not 100% the all in one night scopes. Especially on a tight budget.

Hi. I ve some Problems to mount the ep5 with a monomount. Got the spuhr 34 with 38 hight. But this small stid dont fit. What Spuhr Mount do you use?

@@narf.22 i had that trouble, but what i did is where the leveling insert is i milled it out by 2 mill on the machine to allow clearance of the stud and the mount i have is the ISMS medium (20.6moa) but the earlier model, i know sphur later made them with an indentation to allow for the stud on certain models of optics
