repost from snipers hide... GREAT find...

i just put one on my 1x4 pst.. F'n GREAT!....

For a cat tail or switchview, try a "Breakaway Coaster". 2 for $17.79



NC1 "Universal" Black Coaster Clips from Breakaway. They're used to secure a reel to a rod. Order them here. I use one on my Tac30 1-4x and MTAC 3.5-10x. Less than $20 for the pair (not sure if they're still sold as pairs).

The knob part turns to tighten them down. Once tight, use a sharp razor to cut the excess off.

Here's a (lousy) pic of the one on my 1-4x. You can see the knob right above the Burris logo on the ocular:

That is a great idea. How does it look like it is going to hold up?

[Ring]

looks fine.. honestly, i think it can take more abuse then the 60 to 80$ aluminum ones.. the bands are near a thick as flex cuffs, and probably just as strong..

i just mounted the 2nd one on my razor... i have a carbine class this sat, and a mile shoot this weekend to play with them more at..

Damn, that is an awesome idea. I liked the idea of the cat tails but they were always WAY too long in my opinion, this looks just right.

Fantastic! Thanks for posting-

Just ordered the breakaway coaster for my VX-R. For $23 I'll give it a whirl. Just needs to be effective!

Thanks for the tip!

Awesome idea. But is it tight / secure enough since the interior is slick?

[Chunky Monkey]

Got mine yesterday. You still get 2 in the package. I installed and it seems pretty tight but that depends on how hard you'll be banging in it.

I'll find out next 3 gun match.

Again ~thanks to to OP for the info!
