This review tests the repeatability of the Bobro low-profile 34mm scope mount. The presenter, Marcus Hom, simulates removing and remounting the scope multiple times to assess its ability to return to zero. The test utilizes high-quality components including a Lothar Walther barrel, Nucleus action, and Berger 6.5 Creedmoor ammunition.

Quick Summary

The Bobro low-profile 34mm scope mount demonstrated exceptional repeatability in testing, with shifts from the point of aim being less than a tenth of a mil after multiple removals and remounts. This test simulated removing a valuable optic during travel, addressing concerns about re-zeroing accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Bobro scope mount's repeatability performance?

The Bobro low-profile 34mm scope mount demonstrated exceptional repeatability in testing. Shifts from the point of aim were less than a tenth of a mil after multiple removals and remounts, indicating a highly reliable return to zero.

Why would a shooter remove their scope during travel?

Shooters may remove valuable optics from their rifles during travel, such as flying, to prevent potential damage. The Bobro mount's repeatability test addresses the concern of re-zeroing the optic accurately after reinstallation.

What components were used in the Bobro scope mount repeatability test?

The test utilized high-quality components including a Lothar Walther barrel, a Nucleus action, and Berger's 6.5 Creedmoor ammunition, specifically loaded with Lapua brass and 130-grain open tip match bullets.

How did the test simulate scope removal and remounting?

The test involved two main procedures: a control group shot without disturbing the scope, and a test group where the scope was removed and remounted after each individual shot, with a forward bias applied during remounting.
