Laser use for precision targeting?

Anyone using lasers for precision targeting at close range?

Hey just saw this. A while back I had a 1322 set up for snakes. The gun had a scope set up for 15 yard shots and on top I had a laser for 3 feet away shots. Never actually shot a snake but it sure was fun prepping something that actually would make sense is an off set red dot or holographic sight on a 45 degree mount. I have the mount and sight I’ve just not set it up.

Do you have anything left to put it on?

Very nice collection you have there, Sir.

As I was looking through your pictures, I was seeing a common theme with the hawke scopes, but on the last one you went with the helix.

I am seriously thinking about getting a hawke for my S510.

Any particular reason that you choose that one helix?

Dubber. Matt Dubber has made me associate Element with FX. Good glass for $400. The Hawkes aren’t bad for the $$.

My nicest scope I have is a Hawke Sidewinder 8-32x56 very clear scope.

Nice scope man. It takes your shooting to a new level when you have great glass!

Actually the only benefit is it allows me to range in Hunter Field Target with the giant teardrop shaped wheel attached . The rest of my hawkes are just regular vantages and are perfect for hunting

This method of targeting does not seem to be well received by the conventional shooting community. I have spent over 7 years developing high quality sights. I let kids and new shooters test my sights at an air gun range I set up at our Izaak Walton club. I have learned many things from these new shooters that challenge conventional targeting theory. You are on the right track with the offset concept. My offset targeting method works with better results in any position around the barrel. And you are right, I have shot a snake in the head at 2 feet, with precision. I have photos.
