[QUOTE="ntsqd, post: 1944882, member: 93138"] THIS! BT, DT. I bought one of these rangefinders and I've happy with it in the limited use that I've had of it so far: [URL]https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07B94Q4JH/?tag=lrhmag19-20[/URL] A good one piece cleaning rod (to me that means Dewey) and a cleaning guide are important. I prefer to use brass pointed or Parker-Hale style jags. A decent stand to hold the rifle while cleaning is one of those really nice to have things. Mine is an ancient MTM unit that stores on top of a plastic "tool" box intended to hold & organize all of your cleaning supplies. A good rifle rest and rear bag to shoot off of are nice, but I've done it with a home-brewed rest and a shaped block of wood with some indoor-outdoor carpet glued to them. For a reasonably priced quality short bipod have a look at the Magpul bipod. I find the hearing protection that fits over the ear to be hindering in shooting from a rest of any sort. I use the foam inserts, but am actively looking for an in-ear that has a high NRR and has electronic filtering. The filtering is the only thing that I miss about my over-ear hearing protection. Much, much easier to hear Range Safety Officer commands with those than it is with the in-ear protection. [/QUOTE]
