Quoted: Nice cat.
...looks like it's sitting flush even with the railgrabber not right.
Now I'm wondering if my Ior will claer my GG&G mad.

The cat's waiting to drag back a deer if one wanders into the back yard there and I shoot it through the dining room window.
Good eye on the rail cleat, or whatever it's called, not being right! I corrected that after I took the picture and it improved the situation slightly but the scope still hit. I ran the rifle by the shop I frequent and test fit a Troy battle sight and it did indeed fit under there with some room to spare.
Quoted: What scope caps do you have on your IOR?
|
I have the
Weaver Polar Scope Caps, which I like because they come with gray and yellow lenses so you can sight through the scope with the caps closed, but the rear doesn't fit all that great. Once the rubber ring that comes with the IOR is removed there is just a narrow ledge for it to grab on between the ridges for the original rubber ring and the blue ring that's a larger diameter. It doesn't even slide on all the way before hitting the blue ring. I'm going to try a Butler Creek and see how that works.
BTW, I'm going to scan in the IOR manual, such that it is, and post it later this morning in the 1x-4x optic thread or this thread.
ETA: I forgot the range report! I was shooting at a 10" circle at 50yrds to get things sighted in. After a couple of adjustments without too much effort and resting on sandbags I was chewing out a nice 1.25" hole in the middle of the target. The fat ring of the CQB reticle wasn't in the way like I thought it might be, it even seemed to help lining up on the rings of the target. Next weeekend I'm going up to shoot on the family farm so I should have a better idea then how the reticle works picking up various non-paper targets closer in, as well as punching paper at 100 yards and farther.
