Scope Mounts?
« on: March 13, 2004, 05:33:52 AM »
I just bought a new rifle (browning a-bolt, 300 wsm), along with a set of 2 piece Leupold scope mounts. The rear mount is causing problems: it blocks the bolt if it is put on the way it is supposed to go; if I turn it around, it blocks part of the ejection port (the rifle will eject the cartridges fine, but it looks terrible). Has anyone had a similar problem? Could someone recommend a different type of scope mounts for the a-bolt?

Same thing with my Savage in 300 WSM and Leupold bases.  Since it ejects just fine even with the port "blocked" I don't worry about it.

Thanks azshooter. After I did more research, it appears that this is pretty common with the leupold bases. As long as it isn't going to cause any problems, I will probably just live with it.
