I suppose youve seen Shrouds by Heather already Calv? She made my shroud and it really is very good, it may be a last resort but can completely recommend if you do need someone else to make it.

What material did you go with Calvin?

That will be you all set now then. Bet you can't wait for PSP?

[estwing]

i went with lycra Alan..its a pig to sew but it looks the biz..and yes the psp is in sight!!!

[Rustysplit]

The right choice mate. Now I have proved the concept of my ripstop shroud, I may well knock one up in lycra as a neater solution.

[Rustysplit]

Wow, that scope makes you look really small mate! You sure it is only 18"?

Nice work, I will send you my measurements....
