I guess this is wierd but still want to ask. What happens if I mount both rings between the adjusting turret and the eyepiece. Scope in cantilever mode, vibrates and self destructs? Lousy shooting performance?

 

Why? Rail is only 4 inch. Trying to move scope forward maybe just an inch or so. Didn't want to use a longer riser/rail.

 

Thx.

The front of the scope would move - your aim would be horrible.

It depends on the scope. Some new scopes are designed to be mounted this way. If its a cheapie scope, it may pull its self apart as cheap scopes are often multi piece tubes glued together.

 

ps. The scope moves regardless!

what scope are you planing to use?

Nikon ProStaff 2-7x32.

I think I am headed for riser land. Or maybe a NATO length stock instead of the current Warsaw. Or even a pinned adjustable style.

 

Thx all.
