What size scope mounts for Shadow 1000
« on: January 11, 2007, 02:30:25 PM »
Got an Amazon gift card for Xmas. Pyramid sells Leapers  there, so I need to know what size scope mount my Shadow takes. I'm beginning to think this IS addictive.

LOL Ric

It sure is addictive... hehe I use the Accushot one piece mounts on all my shadows except for one. The Accushots are cheap and work well. They cost around $16.00 or so. You can find them at Pyramid and other online stores.

Good Luck

Ordered the Accushot med. one piece scope mount from Amazon and a Tasco 3x9-32 AO scope from OpticsGiant late last night. Now just have to se how long it takes for delivery.

Got everything and installed the GA3-9x32 AO Tasco scope tonight. 100 CPL's later I can now really SEEe how badly I shoot!HAHA LOL 30 yards under the yardlights, some groups 3/4", others 2" . Approximately 750 through the gun now. Lots of "work" ahead for me Guess I'll have to round up some more pellets. Good thing AOA is only 10 miles from home, or 5miles from work!
