Bullseye Competition Boxes

I have been looking at the competition pistol boxes used in Bullseye but they are priced in the $200+ range.  My range bag seems to be alright for what I am doing.  Besides the box, it is recommended you get a scope.  I haven't seen the benefit of that lately also.  For the scope, you shoot a group and if it is off then make the adjustments.  Since I use a RDS, I don't see how a scope would help me.

Its for scoping your shots to confirm your shots and/or make sight adjustment. If you can see 22 holes at 50 yards with the naked eye I'm jealous. Your RDS won't help scope shots.

+1, in certain light conditions I have trouble seeing 22 holes with a scope!
A scope is a valuable tool!

For a box look at the Apache boxes at your harbor freight

Without a scope to check each shot, how to you KNOW your shot was on call? 

A scope is not for looking to see where the shot went, it's for confirming your shot call was correct or that you didn't see it well enough. 

And the best place to put a scope is on a gun box so you don't have to break position to check.

I know it's hard scoping a shot in the timed and rapid portion but it helps with slow fire!

I used spotting scope a lot for LR .22 rifle. It got to where I was scoping after every shot. I broke my really good B&L scope and had to shoot without one for a while. I don't regularly use a scope anymore. It is just reserved for sighting in. I figure that at BE distances, it has to be REALLY windy to effect grouping much (wind is more likely to move ME). I can't change what's been shot, and I know when I have shanked one vs when the shot was sweet.

Maybe, if I ever flirt with 2600, I'll start scoping. Till then, my groups aren't predictable enough to warrant the worry or expense.

Scoping SF, and sustained groups when possible reinforces call and response activities and helps you tune in on what you are doing right and well. All of a sudden the lights will come on and you'll remember what you did and you will do it again
