OK
Geoff ... give or take a mm, the travel is the
same distance. Have measured it... ad nauseum. Approx 1.5 inches. Same as the R&P.
The problem is the unit's overall height at min and max rack. It's a lower profile unit. Which is why I needed to insert an additonal 30mm extender.
For the sake of the exercise, and to make sure you could put your mind at rest, I fully removed the focus lock screw. No diff. Is no good. Is done, dusted and over
As ving pointed out ... it appears 1.5" travel is fairly common.
wavelandscott, it's likely I'll order the CR2 with standard 2" draw tube, an SW8 install kit and additional 1" spacer.
That's Ron at Moonlite's recommendation, and it's the same arrangement I calculated.
Bottom line ... if you can afford it ... pay it!!!!!
