Rifle Scopes AI rifle and cosine indicator

[jp67]

I am waiting for my AIAW in 260 rem with the AI scope mount.
I already have the S&B 3-12x50 with illumunated reticle.
I wish to mount an Angle cosine indicator or Horus ASLI on it but wonder what type of mount to use and where to place it as there is very little room on the scope with illumimated reticle .
See my other post regarding the cosine:

So any help will be appreciated and photos are welcomed

Thanks

So no one uses an ACI with an AIAW?

Have you checked out Sporting Services website?

http://www.sportingservices.co.uk/accessories.asp

and scroll down....looks like this attaches to the dovetail.

If you are using the AI 28' one piece mount you should have enough room either in front of or behind the mount to install.

They also have the Horus:

You are right they have the"Gen 1 mount for Accuracy Rail at £45.00" for AI rifles.
I just wonder wher you put it on the mount?
Bottom right

They also have the following 34mm anti cant device but I do not know if there is enough room to put it on the scope with the illuminated reticle knob on the way.

If you folow the first link I posted there is a picture of the ACI with the dovetail mount fitted to the right of the unit.

I have enough room behind my scope to mount an AI BUIS on the dovetail so I'm sure there'd be enough room for the ACI instead.

As for the cant indicator..pass! There is only so much kit you can load up on the rail or the tube and I'm not sure how much space there is between the eye piece housing and the control for the illuminated reticule as my PMII doesnt have this feature.

No worries.

Just for ref take a look at the Badger Ordnance site:

Looks like a couple of different mounting options.

Re: AI rifle and cosine indicator

I want to resurrect this thread to see if anyone has any experience with this particular mentioned cosine indicator.

Also, what options are other AI (dovetail) shooters using as far as bubble leveling goes? I've seen a few and know the options that are available, but would like to simply gather a consensus rather.

Thanks,
