Q:

Which Adjustable Mount?

I need an adjustable mount for my Condor. I have the scope adjustment maxed out to the left, and shims under the back scope ring. Which adjustable mount should I order?

Angling your scope is going to drive you crazy at varying distances…

They only way to fix this problem is to find out exactly what is off center and get it realigned…:!: ❗ ❗ ❗

Think about what is going to happen when your distance to target changes from 15-45 yards… Nothing as frustrating and inaccurate as holding off to the side without wind….

Please let me know how it works out. I will order one next week.

I already ordered the BKL 263’s when I read about these on a UK forum, these seem to be the way to go for those who wind up having allignment problems…

I think Sports Match makes all of the mounts which Beeman rebrands as their own.

Thanks, I will check this out. Are you using this mount?

I am going to be traveling for a few days and I am not sure I will be able to respond to more posts soon, but I appreciate the suggestions. I’ll get back soon.

Sports Match UK ATP65 two piece double screw mount adjustable for windage, elevation, height, can also be adjusted laterally so scopes can be centred with dovetails.

I am using a tri-rail adapter and a 1 pc medium mount. I tried turning both around and it didn’t make much difference. Much the same using a Bushnell Banner scope or my new Legend.

The AF rings I have have independent clamps on the left and right. If you put them on the gun and just tighten one side, the scope will be off center. Messed me all up on initial sight in. I mounted mine and it waaaay to the left. closer look and could visually tell the rings were not centered over the mounting rail. To fix, loosen both mounting screws, center the ring base on the rail and tighten both sides evenly.

Hope this helps

Found it….

The search here rocks!!!! 😯

Do you have a TriRail???

Mine was just under .100″ off center… 😯

I tested it for center on the rifle with a custom made gauge and it revealed the glaring errors of shoddy manufacturing, a thin plastic shim the length of my one piece mount solved this problem.

I would hesitate to shim single piece mounts, you may tweak your scope tube with separate mounts…

Get a single piece mount and shim the entire thing or you will have shots off to the side at different distances from your zero in pint. If the scope isn’t parallel to the barrel you’ll drive yourself nuts between close up and far off shooting!!!

I made a post about this 6-9 months ago… It shows my custom gauge to confirm center and deduce the amount of error in machining…

Something is not right if you have to adjust it that far to the right.
