| the gibbs mount, will it hold any other scopes aside from the original one for it?...ie will it hold different scopes |

I think SCOUT scoping a Garand is worthwhile––I've used the Amega Ranges mount, Burris Ballistic Plex pistol scope, and the Amega Ranges is solid, and I also like being able to see the target out at 300 yards.
I think the Ultimak mount is probably a better looking variation, but I haven't tried one. I can't do this with iron sights: 
That's eight shots. YMMV. |

You should be able to. Need to know the diameter of the mount. dont have one yet, and the scopes look skinnier than 1inch so im not sure You might want to find out before buying, and look and see what your scope options are. the .mil used two different types with different diameters. |

What distance was it shot at and was it benched, prone, or what? |

What distance was it shot at and was it benched, prone, or what? Thank you. That was shot at 100 yards––benched atop an old gym bag. Greek surplus (HXP '69) shoots about 1/3 looser groups. |

Get a bolt gun or a flat top AR for a scope unless this is an M1C or M1D. I have 8 Garands and I think scoping a Garand is a waste of time. The scope has to be off to the side and that makes for some wierd cheek welds and other crap. What about the scout mount? Those seem to be pretty good mounts. (?) |
