Nice looking. I see you mounted both mounts behind the adjustments. I did the same on mine.

That is the way it came and it seems to be about right. I'll know after I shoot it for sure.

On a rifle I put the front one in front of the adjustments. It gives it a longer base and makes it more stable. But with the M'sLg it feels better more further forward.

On a lot of those vintage of scopes, wasn't uncommon to mount both rings on one side or the other of the adjustments. That's the way I did my old Redfield 4x on my Marlin 44 mag. No other way it would have worked as far as getting the eye relief distance. ![]() Have gone back to the scout setup with a 2x pistol scope on this one, though. I like having the receiver clear and nice having the scope where it can't come back and bite you. The 44 mag with this little carbine tends to have a lot of bounce. Gun also seems to have more of a natural pointing ability with the scout setup than with a receiver mounted scope. ![]() |

I've never used a scout scope. Is that a cantilever receiver mount or a barrel mount?

I agree, great pic. Has a very old west flavor to it with that six gun and lever gun.

Thanks folks, that is the closest thing I have to a cowboy hat. I posted a range report. It's a little long winded. But I did have fun along with a little frustration. A few self imposed obstacles to get past. but any day is a good day when I can shoot something.

Nice picture, Seabee. That's a good lookin Indiana Jones hat, but it might be time for a Stetson. |
