Looking for something besides a small tripod to mount your spotting scope? F.W. Arms of Hayward, CA, has the solution with their new Best Bench Mount, a spotting scope stand that attaches to a shooting bench with a large, heavy-duty clamp.

When securely fastened, the Best Bench Mount can easily lock in the current view of your target, as well as provide peace of mind from the knowledge that your expensive spotting scope isn't going to take a tumble.

The scope mounting plate vertical tilt is adjusted with a threaded knob.

The new Best Bench Mount is made from 304 stainless steel, brass alloy, and anodized 6061 aluminum. The durable construction should help if used outside in rough weather conditions.
