Hunters And Shooters Do Have Many Options Today Many Americans, but also citizens of other parts of the world, are known for their love of the outdoors, sports, and activities where guns and rifles are the main attraction. Deer and big game hunters, wing-shooters, and those that enjoy the thrill of competition shooting all share a love for firearms and the excitement that goes with the activities associated with these. Of course, the choice of gun or rifle will always be paramount, but no hunter or shooter will rely on the firearm – even if it represents a leading brand such as Browning, Harrington & Richardson, Howa, Marlin, or Mossberg – alone. Skill, whether natural or taught, is important too, but then so is the choice of telescopic sight to aid accuracy for all disciplines and overall the different shooting distances. Some of these are sold together with the rifle of the buyer’s choice, in other words, already mounted on top of the firearm and ready to be used. But, for many, the other option is equally – if not more – attractive i.e. to buy the scopes separately from the rifle and to mount the system themselves. Such systems, therefore, offer the hunter and shooter a great DIY opportunity whereby they follow the manufacturer’s, or the dealer’s, instructions and mount the scope base and rings themselves. Such a telescopic system consists of, typically, the base and the rings that accompany it as part of the whole system. It is affixed to the top of the firearm with the required screws which the dealer includes. As for the tools necessary to complete installation: that is normally one’s responsibility, but the good news is that if you follow instructions, it becomes a manageable process – hence the choice of a DIY option by so many hunters and shooters. The choices are normally between a 1- or 2-piece ring option. This often depends on personal preference, and the new rifle owner would do well by talking to more experienced shooters, and certainly their gun dealer, about the best system for the profile of their specific rifle or gun. The same is true for the online ordering system. A good, well-respected online service will certainly be able to offer their buyers all the important information regarding their purchase – and the tips in terms of which they will mount their base and rings to ensure great accuracy when they fire. There are different choices and types of rifle scope mount systems out there, and every firearm owner that prefers the DIY option should certainly avail themselves of the best information before they choose one, which, most do. Once more: the individual that feels in the slightest unsure of choices and installation should talk to their mates, the dealer, instructors, and anyone that has ever mounted a system on their own in the past.
The different types of rifle scope mount that shooters are normally recommended to have a look at and compare for their requirements and preferences are the following 3: the Weaver, the Leupold, and the Picatinny mounts. They share similarities but are also different to varying degrees. The Weaver, for example, is the most commonly used mount system and is therefore often favored by buyers that want to ensure they are offered a straight-forward process when they attach the rings to the scope base. They can also be removed and reattached later without loss of zero or sighting in, which refers to aligning the sights. This makes it easy to remove and carry the scope in a bag, for example, until you are ready to mount it once more – just before you are to hunt or shoot. Leupold and Picatinny enjoy their following too; however, the Leupold can’t be removed and attached to another rifle as easily as the Weaver. The Picatinny, again, is often favored by those that enjoy shooting at very long range, for example. The above are merely tips and ideas for the DIY enthusiast. It remains important to do your homework first before you make your choice.
