Proper scope mounting is crucial for rifle accuracy and usability. Key mistakes to avoid include mounting rings too close to scope housings, insufficient torque leading to zero shift, and incorrect height on AR-15 platforms. Over-tightening can crush the scope tube, while insufficient clearance can impact accuracy. Ensuring correct alignment and leveling is also vital for predictable adjustments.
This video debunks common scope mounting myths, emphasizing that modern scope turrets are precisely machined and can be used for leveling. It clarifies that on 20 MOA rails, the scope must be level to the rail, not just gravity, to avoid windage errors. The presenter stresses leveling the scope body, not just the reticle, as the turrets are fixed to the body, and a canted reticle indicates a manufacturing defect.
