    Scope ring hanging off rail just a bit

    I mounted my scope up in some old nightforce rings because my A.R.C. one-piece mount doesn't play so nice with the Kahles horizontal parallax ring. I got everything the way I wanted it, but somehow I missed that my scope rings are mounted at the extremes so that the clamping portion is just...

    Rifle Scopes Sig TANGO 6 4-24x reticle off center.

    There have been others posts about canted reticles and related topics, but none of my searches thus far have dealt with my exact problem. I bought a Sig TANGO6 4-24x50 a little over a year ago. Optics planet had a good deal on them. The reticle is off center. When at 24x, the reticle appears...

    Rifle Scopes US Optics MR-10 setup

    Hey there everyone I am a frequent reader here but not a frequent poster. A while back I decided I wanted to get into bolt guns and traded a Trijicon TA31/rmr combo for a US Optics MR-10. These are their older models with the large EREK knob but the glass quality is really nice and even in my...

    Rifle Scopes Did I damage my scope?

    I recently re-mounted my US optics MR-10 onto a Remington 700 using ARMS #22 mounts. I couldn't find much info concerning torque specs on the ARMS or the USO website but after some researching I felt confident that 15 inch lbs seemed like a median value to start with. I did not lap the rings, so...
