Scope removal question...

[nikonNUT]

Hey all,
Going to swap triggers in my Vudoo and want to pop the scope off first for safetys sake. It is riding in a Sphur mount so my question is simple. Can I just undo the pic rail mounting screws or should I actually remove the scope from the rings? Seems like with a Sphur (built like a brick shithouse) option one should be fine but I guess I am thinking about stresses generated from the base moving about abit after everything is torqued (base to pic rail tension). Yes, I'm an idiot for asking but ask I will!

Just take the whole base and scope off as one.

Yup just remove the spuhr with scope

If the scope mount screws will allow removal of the mount without touching the scope mount why would you remove the scope first?

He’s just concerned taking the tension off the cross bolts will add stress to the scope tube. He’s overthinking the situation. We’ve all be there. He’s just reassuring himself

Maybe a ZCO

ZCO indeed! . Just double checking as I could fuck up an anvil with a rubber hammer!
