About Making Sure You Prepare Your Rifle And Its Telescopic Sights For Accuracy When it comes to buying or acquiring a rifle or shotgun there are many choices, and preferences that can be catered for, also regarding special features. Some rifle owners buy their firearm with a telescopic sight already mounted whereas many others prefer to look for the sight separately. This may be because of the excitement of putting your firearm together so to speak, or the thrill that comes with DIY processes, or because there are, indeed, some other options available - and not the one species that may be included when you acquire your firearm. Therefore many shooters and hunters do their homework in this regard and visit another gun shop, or rifle supplier, or manufacturer – or websites on the internet. This helps them to come up with the scope, which is short for the rifle’s telescopic sight or optical sighting device, that will suit their rifle and their own preference best. This device is essential for the shooter that wants to be accurate when they shoot. Those hunters and shooters that prefer to find their sight have various options when they visit a gun shop or dealer – or order from an online source. These telescopic sights are normally offered as a scope system consisting of a base and its accompanying rings that are mounted on top of the rifle. This is done on a DIY basis, for those that enjoy these processes as opposed to the individuals that prefer a rifle with a sight already mounted. One buys the system which consists of the base and rings, acquires the tools to attach the system on the rifle as per manufacturer’s instructions, and either save yourself some money, or you know that you can take care of a process that may not be all that difficult, provided you follow the exact instructions or, at the very worst, ask someone with the knowledge to assist you. These systems are sold whereby you have a choice of either a 1- or 2-piece ring system. This often boils down to preference and choice, also because certain issues may dictate one’s choice. These could include, for example, the weight of the rings and the base for some, which may aid to a sturdy system if it is comprised of steel as opposed to, say, aluminum, which is lighter and for some therefore easier to handle as they aim. Look around for the most appropriate system and pay more for quality if you have to and avoid falling into the trap of going for a cheap product. Be sure you deal with a reputable service and supplier.


Always make sure when you order from an online source – or buy from a physical shop or dealer – that you order the correct size base and rings to go with your rifle whether it is a scope base and rings for your Weatherby Vanguard or another leading brand. For the Weatherby, for example, bases (as is the case with the rings you affix) are offered in different options such as a Leupold 1-piece cross-slot base as a Picatinny rail of aluminum that is ideal for fitting the accompanying rings on top. For those that favor a lightweight, solid Picatinny rail option there is the Talley Weatherby Vanguard rail, for example. There are more options such as an EGW rail for the Wetherby. This goes to show that there are different options for the Weatherby, but the same is true for other rifles. It is up to the individual to do a little bit of research before they commit to a system or to glean some good information from an experienced person that may be able to offer advice in this regard.
