Antares 8x50 finder to VMC200L

Post by shirox »

Hi guys,

I have a Antares 50mm angled finder to match onto my VMC200L.
As it did not come with a finder bracket shoe, so i'm gonna get one.

as for the finder brackets for antares,
So my question is will the Vixen 50mm (Long/short) bracket be able to fit the antares?

I am also thinking if the ring type can fit into the brackets? Do i need another mounting bracket?

I don't know if the Vixen holder will be able to fit the 8x50 but the VMC has screw holes for 2 finders, mine has one attached to the Vixen 9x50 illum. reticle finder and the other for an AT Telrad-type fnder.
DON'T PANIC
