Edward ★★★★★

Finally got my R80DA ring system mounted securely—this shoe has a solid, reassuring heft that makes me feel confident the finder won’t budge during imaging. The flat-bottom design sits flush against the OTA without any wobble.

Avery ★★★★★

The fit on my 9.25 SCT is perfect—the shoe lined up with the R80DA rings without any tweaking needed. I’ve had no slippage at all during long imaging sessions.

Joseph ★★★★★

I was a little worried about alignment, but the dovetail shoe mounted solidly on my 9.25" SCT and the rings held my R80DA finder perfectly. It feels sturdy enough to stay put even after a long night of slewing.
