    With a decent red dot I didn't find parallax an issue , particularly with the ranges these rifles are generally used at . No real problems with a decent weld either as long as a riser isn't used....

    Looks like you might have mounted the rail the wrong way around to how it is meant to go, this would aim the rail down and make it shoot high. I would just try turning around the rail and remount...

    it does not look level all the hi and low mounts do is help you to Aline your eye when resting your cheek on the stock

    had a bushnell red dot on my 44 mag rossi with no issues at all with zeroing at 50 mtrs . Silly question but is the rail on the correct way around ? They are usually shaped to fit the barrel as it...

    Looks like a parallel base on tapered barrel so site is not in line with barrel . [wrong base I say ]

    Found a pic of mine and if you look closely you can see rail is tapered and shaped to fit around barrel taper. This rail came from gunworks and was a good price. 162936

    Jhon liked post by Flyblown On thread : .222 turning back the clock
    There are two ways to look at this. 1. Be properly old school and use a simple scope and know how to use it, and what the limitations are. Oftentimes this means faster reactions to the...

    A gent at the range today let me fire a few rounds through his fully wooded mauser in 7x57. What a fantastic shooting round! Very mild recoil and was able to shoot 1.5 inch groups with open sights...

    Bloody fingers, my drop tube is 550 mm long not 40mm. The ones in the funnel set are too short. Made mine out of a length of copper tube. W296 is a bastard, it jammed up the rotating tube on my...

    Very interesting read Jhon. I've been shooting the 7 x 57 since the late seventies. Started with an old Chilean M95 and have since worked my way through various rifles. Currently using Ruger M77...

    Jhon liked post by 257weatherby On thread : What are some of the smoothest bolt actions you have handled?
    My M12 Mauser makes the rest feel like their bolts are wrapped in sandpaper and dipped in golden syrup. And the trigger makes the rest feel like PTO hitches on an old Fergie.

    Nope. Dont need it for the 50cal at all. But if it's big and strong enough to handle that, my 416 and anything smaller should be fine

    Jhon, that’s what I was hinting at in my earlier post. The throats are “Lovelace “ in dimension for a lot of 7mms. So load to mag length or seat to a depth of 1 caliber diamenter for the lighter...
