A General Step In Attaching Your Scope Ring Mounts Properly

By Nancy Gardner


Hunters or those who are practicing fire away shooting are the most beneficial persons when it comes to using rifle scopes. With this, they will be able to shoot their target properly even they are so far from them. Thus, it can help them increase the accuracy of their shooting.

If you were to locate, these scopes are mounted on top of the gun. Whatever your gun is, as long as it has perfectly made scope ring mounts, then you could do whatever it is that you want to do with your magnifier. But in knowing how to install it properly, here are some of the general tips.

The very first step that you should do is to choose the appropriate scope for your gun. You will be able to enjoy it if it does not overpower your weapon. This is because your rifle has only a limited distance to reach and if you use a magnifier that is way beyond it, then your magnifier will never be good and appropriate.

Each mounts available in the market are really not the same. Each one of them is made purposely to each type of gun. Its base plates are purposely made for a rifle, its rings are specific to the plate so as its tube diameter. Thus, it only gives you more reasons to correctly buy your mounting equipment and magnifier that really fits your rifle.

When mounting, look for a very good place to do it. You should have a big space so you have a space to place every mounting piece and to avoid losing them. Never, ever work in a place where there are so many people that is passing by as they could be distraction to you and lose some pieces. Also, the place must be well lighted so you can see everything clearly especially when you are attaching it.

If you are starting to mount the ring mounts, you should always think first of your safety. Ensure that when you are trying to install everything, youll not be touching the trigger of your rifle. But, it is best if youll remove all the bullets inside it.

When you remove the materials from its box, wipe all of them with a rag. It is best if youll apply oil coating to your gun and to the mount so that there is no room in building corrosion. This may become a huge problem in the long run as the rusts on the metal parts may cause complications especially when you use it with your shoots.

Always read the manual inserted inside its box. Understand all the steps carefully so you could mount properly. Always tighten the screws to keep the magnifier on top when youre hunting or having shooting drills. You may even apply super glue on its screws to really keep it in place.

Lastly, check the alignment of your rings. You can easily do this by placing the scope inside the both of them and then turn. If you can freely turn it with no hindrances at all, then you did the right thing. If not, then redo what you did and properly align it.
