Summit Viper VS. Razor

[MACHINIST]

I have had my Viper for about 5-6 years now and love all the summit stands but have been thinking of trying a Razor for the open front style.Anyone have the razor here?And if you do and are close could I try it out at your place?

FYI, do some looking around, you can sometimes get the "Open Shot" top sections and use it with your current Viper bottom. Similar to the Razor, but even less weight. I had one and sold it, as it wasnt for me, but many guys love them.

Thats why I didnt want to just buy one.I have heard both good and bad about the open front stands.I like my viper buy a few times the bar in front has either screwed me or almost.In fact last years buck was so close I had to stand on my toes to shoot him because he was only 8 yards me.

Ive had that happen before, but I just back my stand off of the trails, etc more than I used to. I also dont go 20+ feet up, so my shots are at more shallow angles.
