It's a good thing you nabbed it, James, or I'd have got it this morning. I check for 
telephoto metal hoods twice a day for my 200/2.5 (77mm), 300/4.5 (67mm), and 400/5.6 
(77mm). Truth be told, I've just acquired one for each, all via EBay. But none is as 
long as I'd like. Your 72 with a 67-to-72mm stepup ring would have served nicely on my 
300! 

There are times I'm tempted to buy a 400/6.3 Spiratone just to get the damn hood.

The Pentax MH-RA67 hood arrived yesterday. I must say, it looks stunning on my Rikenon 
APO 300/4.5. I paid $40 BIN, and I feel that half of that can be justified on 
aesthetics alone.
