[QUOTE="naturefox, post: 1081146, member: 90354"] Hi! I´ve got some questions regarding mounting options for a riflescope. We (a couple of friends and I), had a discussion, and could not agree upon the best way of doing things. I`m sure it`s been debated before, but still beating the horse; On a 338 lapua with integrated rail on the action (yes, it should be stiff). Mounting a fairly large, long bodied scopes like nightforce, kahles etc. Would a short but stiff one piece mount (spuhr, GDI etc.) be preferred over separate rings that can be spaced further out? A lot of the one-piece mounts are very stiff, but clamp the scope close to the center. Some of us lean towards this, while others point out the benefits of moving the contact points as far back and forward as possible to reduce stress and vibrations on the scope, and thus, separate rings would be better? What do you all think? :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
