    Rifle Scopes Problem zeroing scope - elevation bottomed out

    Re: Problem zeroing scope - elevation bottomed out Thanks BobD. I followed the instructions - although the ones for MK6 are a little different. However, I also can't figure out how to set the zero stop. I will get in touch with Leupold and see what they say. BTW, is there such a thing as a...

    Re: Problem zeroing scope - elevation bottomed out This was going to be my follow up question - how do I release the zero stop? I read the manual, but am not sure if I got it right. So far I get 15 mils from the bottom to the top. Thanks!

The mount does not have any cant. Trying to zero at 100 yards. The POI is about 5 mil above POA and I...

    Rifle Scopes This Acog on an M4 - Any downside?

    Re: This Acog on an M4 - Any downside? As others have said, the eye relief on TA31 family sucks! When I had one, it was literally banging against my safety glasses as I was shooting. If you are dead set on an ACOG, the TA11 or TA33 family is a much better choice since they offer better eye...

    I recently acquired an AI AE MK II that came with a factory installed butt spike: So far, I can only rotate the main/coarse thread. How do I engage the smaller/fine thread to extend it further, or is that all there is to it? Also, can the butt spike be removed if desired? Will it be...

    Changes to remington 700

    Re: Changes to remington 700 I had good luck with Nikon Buckmasters side focus, mil-dot series. Also, don't skimp on the rings/mount. Figure at least $50 to $100 for a decent set in addition to the scope
