Could it work with a spotting scope?

I would not recommend using this tripod with a spotting scope. I would spend a few more bucks and get one that is of better quality. I have sold my 75" Pro Heavy Duty and purchased a nice Manfrotto. good luck

It is a heavy duty tripod, so if your spotting scope has the same DSLR mount then it will work fin.

I would think so but am not positive that this telescope would! Contact Barska, I am sure they will respond ! I do like the tripod for my spotting scope!

yes it should but im not sure if the eye relief for you will be correct.... the scope could possibly be to far forward.

Yes I would think so. I have a 4 lb 90mm Maksutov-Cassegrain Telescope (spotting scope) mounted and manages it well.

I'm sure it could, but I'd be more worried about the base you're putting it on, and the scope you plan on using.

Yes, you can zero in with the spotting scope and then see detail through the telescope. Easy and crystal clear.

Yes you could... I use a spotting scope Carl Zeiz 65 which is heavy and NO problem.... You will like it...

Good question. Maybe--if you want to play around with it and possibly buy parts to make it work. If you need two mounting points, one for the scope the other for a camera, this unit won't provide that as is, and if your scope has an angled eyepiece like mine it is probably impossible. You could end up spending more on adapting this for your use than just buying a digiscoping bracket.

Not what it was designed for. Its a spotting scope, typically used for observing game at long range.

I don't think so. These are gee,at but i think you would need something with greater power for rifle range spotting.

Hans, I have personally tried this on the exact spotting scope, being that I used to own one, It will fit perfectly.

It all depends on how you mount the scope. Co-witnessing will work but at higher mangnifications the front sight post will be blurred like any magnified scope.

I would imagine. A scope would get in the way and sights may or may not be an issue depending on the type And location. The whole thing has to wrap around the receiver so extra things like large sights could potentially be a problem.

I can not answer that question. the optics are sharp. but I can tell you this at 50 yds. you can see what you hit without a spotting scope. I will be trying this scope out a 100 yds. soon. to make adjustments up and to the right you have to turn the knob counterclockwise. have fun with it.

Yes, it will work. I use mine with large lenses and spotting scopes from my jeep. As long as the scope has a 1/4-20 female mount (standard camera mount) it will work just fine.

Mike, it would work just fine. The only thing is you are shortening your focal length so the accuracy at a long range may suffer. I had the same issue with my light that is mounted on the top rail. I put the front sight behind it. If I am using BUIS s--- has broken bad and I am not driving tacks anyway. Hope this helps.

I'm sorry I can't be of much help as I am not familiar with your camera. As far as eyepiece, you should not need one. You place your magnifying device in the upper portion, and attach your camera to the lower. I was able to get my camera lens right up to my magnifying device. Although, I only had a cheap monoscope. Haven't tried it out with spotting scopes, but it does allow for many styles and shapes of cameras, I feel.
