2 rifles 1 scope

[JoeInTucson]

Question.
I want to run one scope on two rifles temporarily. They are Gen3 RPRs. One in 338 LM and the other in 300 PRC. I know it can be done, a matter of diligent record keeping from what I have read. . What mount or rings would you recommend without selling a kidney? I don’t care if they have a lever or a cross bolt lever would probably be better. The existing rings are Vortex high 2piece.

Are they the expensive vortex rings made by seekins? I forget the name but they would be in the 150 price range. If so, you don't need anything else.

Just leave rings on scope and have same style of rail , mark the position it’s mounted and sighted in on each gun.

I use this one from Midwest Industries and it repeats zero very well and I take it off and on regularly as matches I shoot have both iron sight and optic stages.

Keep track of the location on the rail, always push forward and to the right when you lock it down. 1.4” lift may need some more cheek riser adjustment but not a lot more than standard rings.

30MM QD Scope Mount

The 30MM QD Scope Mount is the smoothest functioning QD lever on the market, and a superior clamping that will not damage or coin the rail surface. Made by Midwest Industries. Shop All Optic & Scope Mounts.

I do the same on a couple setups. I really prefer one piece setups for these scenarios. I use a Badger uni-mount for one but no need to spend that much coin. The other setup I employ is an arken one piece very similar to the Badger. It was $70 or so on Amazon and works great.

Both setups return to zero great for long range steel.

I'm running two scopes on one rifle successfully by using NF Ultralight rings on both scopes and a pic rail. Returns to zero most time spot on but may be 3/4 MOA off sometimes. Good enough for what I'm doing.

for switching scopes, I always liked the Warne quick release bases and rings.
