THE LOWER THE SCOPE, THE BETTER
A scope mounted close to the rifle ensures proper cheek weld on the stock for
a stable firing position and allows for rapid target acquisition. We recommend
using the lowest possible ring height. No specific clearance is required, but the
scope must clear the bolt handle, hammer (on lever actions and handguns),
sights, and barrel. When installed, be sure that your scope does not interfere
with firearm operation and does not contact anything except the mount rings.
INSTALLING THE BASE, RINGS, AND SCOPE
Please refer to the instructions included with the base and rings for their proper
installation on the firearm.
NOTE:
The windage and elevation adjustments on new Leupold scopes are centered
as part of the assembly process. If you are mounting a scope that was previously
mounted on another rifle, you should center the adjustments (please see CENTERING
WINDAGE AND ELEVATION ADJUSTMENTS TO ACHIEVE OPTIMUM ADJUSTMENT
TRAVEL ON PAGE 18).
