I use it for shooting at 100 meters, it works well, I see my impacts (22lr) without too much trouble. It would be wise to replace the tripod with something heavier (or the ballast), when one relies on the firing table (yet concrete), it tends to tremble a little. I am satisfied with the purchase, I removed one star because the price rose an order placed between the first time and canceled by Amazon for whatever reason, and the second time I've actually ordered and received.
