That is the reason the the mounts appear backwards. More or less mirror image. Your mounts are facing the wrong direction. They are "leaning" toward the rear. The reason we use cantilever mounts on AR rifles is so we can get proper eye relief without bridging the Gap between the handguard and the upper. The handguard can flex and move, so the ring mounted to it can move as well. If you flip your mounts around the proper way, "leaning" forward, they can both be mounted to the upper while keeping the scope in the same position.

Vortex Viper 6.5-20x44 $299 for the discontinued Vortex model. Scope really spots well. I guess a Nightforce Scope would really be the thing. I know your proud of your rifle, but spamming posts is frowned upon here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wait till we get to know him if you think this is a bit muchNobody should take this stuff serious, maybe take the suggestions related to scope mounting serious but the rest is just something to chuckle about, good ol fashioned ribbing.

The Father Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 (edited) Isn't it obvious I put all that stuff on wrong just for demostrational purposes. Anyway, all is mounted to spec now. Will range report when I shoot the thing, good or bad. Will compare some cheap ammo 147 gr with the match grade 168 gr ammo. I always thought forums liked pictures of their rigs.

"I fukked up" is the appropriate response here,but I don't think we'll see it. That's why I want him to come to a local shoot-fest. He'll own up after that, and I want to shoot a PSA that actually works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
