Can anyone recommend an inexpensive gun vise? Mainly for scope mounting, cleaning, general maintenance, etc.

Any opinion of the Kolpin model ssv500?

You in NC I see as well. So shipping will not be much.  The Range Rest is what I used to work on mine now and clean.  They say you can shoot of it, i haven't tried but will over Easter.  I think they sell for around $45.00 ish

Tipston Best Gun Vise from Midway USA. 100 bucks but the best I've seen. Got one a month or so ago. Love it.

I made my own out a car scissor jack and some steel that I had. Welded it all up. Works quite well. Adjustable elevation (very small increments) and nice and sturdy.

I've got this and like it quite a bit. Its metal and solid. I use it for scope mounting, ring lapping and cleaning and am happy with it so far.

+2 on the Tipton Gun Vise...but have a look around as i've heard there's new models that rotate that have come out lately.
