Is the Sako Optilock mount 0 moa? If so why did they not incorporate some MOA to help with scope elevation?

I ground my front optic base to get some extra elevation. Worked out nicely. Link attached

get the Sako Tactical Scope Mount. It has built-in 30 MOA cant and is excellent. My D34 for my SB PMII rides low and is like a rock.

Re: sako optilock 0 moa?
That is what I was thinking of doing as well.. I have a 20MOA pic rail and though about referencing the amount to take off the front ring using it as a taper guide..
Thanks,

Re: sako optilock 0 moa?
If you are trying to figure out how much to lower your front ring by the most accurate way would be to calculate it using trigonometry. If your rings are 100mm apart like mine are on a size M , 85 action you will need to remove 0.58mm to get 20MOA of taper. Like it shows in my thread with the pictures I removed the material from the base because there is a locating spigot on the ring which you would not want to remove.

Nice work XOK. I just put some shim between the rear ring and mount.

Re: sako optilock 0 moa?
Shims should work nicely, I thought about doing that too.

Mine is the quick release TRG style. I will probably just shim the rear up rather then cut on the mount or try to trim around the aligning collar free hand on the mill..

Most optilocks I saw had to be re-worked to get to zero. Some where positiv some negativ. I also prefered the grinding method like xod did.
