I just got my Bushnell Elite 3200 10x40 scope and wanted to know some tips for properly installing it. I have one of these mounts:  and it has worked fine for about 6 years. It previously housed a BSA 8-32x44 scope and when I removed the scope, it didn't have any crush/dent marks. Since the Bushnell was almost $200, I want to know of "proper" mounting methods. Should I use that powder to prevent the scope from moving? How much torque for the cap screws and should I use threadlocker? What's a quick and dirty way of leveling the scope to prevent it from canting? Any other helpful tips? |

Consider the Epoxy method of scope bedding. It serves the same function of lapping without permanently altering your rings and gives a 100% perfect fit and grip to your scope. I have used this method on several precision rifles setups over the years and it works great.
