	No, you open the other eye to observe the area covered by the magnified view.

Couple of them in our club lately and they are clear and bright with modern coated optics. Those guys got great military discounts, and mounts have positive clicks, come with bases. Do you know they got a discount? I'd be interested to know.

	No, they don't have the extra elevation. They also copy the regular Unertl mounts, not the Posa mounts. Clarence

	I've owned the DZ 8X for about 12 years...or more. A fantastic scope,lots of elevation,can always put a 20 moa bases on to help keep it centered 1/8" base front,rear 1/4" or more.I sent off to have a 1/2" dot @100 yds waiting to get it back. So that will be a 1" @ 200 yds,just right !

	May the Bullet Gods be with you.......

	I have extra front and rear MVA bases that I bought to use with my 28" scope on the 1874 Shilohs. Can I use these when D/T at 7.20 for when I mount my Lyman STS and will these also be interchangeable with an Malcomb scope mounts later on? Or should I just order a set from Steve Earl.

	If I want to use Steve Earls Case Colored Blocks set at a spacing of 7.20, will I be able to mount either a Lyman STS, MVA A or a Malcomb scope using these blocks? Will they all fit these blocks?

You should be able to use those bases as long as you are happy with the height. My MVA bases have Lyman, Posa, and dimples for the longer MVA scopes. The bases for the B5 scopes are different as they have a Winchester dimple on one side and the other side works with Lyman style scopes. Chris.

	Thanks Chris, I ordered a couple of blocks from Steve Earl and am waiting on them.

	My dad has both, and there isn't much difference looking through the glass other than that the MVA has finer cross hairs. I don't think you can go wrong with either, for me, it would come down to the mounts you want, Malcom or unertl style
