    Nice idea in theory, but in practice, ammo is costly, range time is valuable, and chance of shooting an animal is priceless. The cost of your scope swapping not being exact is just too great. Do you really want to rely on a torque wrench and some notes?

    Similarly, CZ 455 and Sako quad's barrel change is a good idea in theory, but in practice without shooting live round you just cannot trust that you can re-zero them blind.

    Get one nice scope, use it on one rifle for a couple of years and then rotate through your arsenal.

    I swap scopes in Leupold qr rings on my deer rifle,from a 3-9 swaro for longer range,to a Leupold 1-4 for bush hunting,to a red dot in Steiner 30mm rings for the real tight stuff(kaimais and lake tarawera ) to open sights when the weather is real crap and never worry about poi difference as my testing has showed they all go back to within an inch @ 100 m,all on a sako A7.I’m a bush hunter mostly and have never shot at a deer over 100 m.
