500 Nitro and 450 366:

You must have been typing while I was editing my last post. I added some pictures of the scope, rings and bases. Please go back up and have a look.

Luckily the rings came with a set of hex screws so I substituted the levers with the screws. An allen wrench was include with the rings and although not as qick as the claw mounts, with allen wrench in hand, I can have the scope off in about 20 seconds.

I am not really interested in removing the scope for shooting. At 50, my eyes aren't quite what they were at 40, therefore I need the scope for good site acquisition. Also, with the low iron sights, I can get a better sight picture with the scope. My intent is to leave the scope on, but if I can find a higher rear and front sight, I will put them on for back up.

Here in Northern Alberta the only dangerous game is bear, and we don't have many of them where we are. And most shots are at approximately 25-250 metres, unless you're like my wife who shoots her deer at 10 metres; I taught her how to hunt, LOL. So there is no close up dangerous game shots reguiring open sights.

As I said in another post, the rifle scope mount was set up for a intermediate eye relief scope with the rear of the bell being in line with the breach face.

The scope was very light but I did not like the scope because the cross hair was too fine. Consequently I have ordered the Leupold Scout scope to replace the very heavy Zeiss Conquest. I am hoping the change in weight will help my regulation situation. At 2.5 power, the scout scope should be perfect for my application.

Comments, questions, concerns always welcome.

Kindest regards,

Carpediem
