Hello,
Burris told me that the offset shims will raise the impact from 5 to around 46". That didn't tell me a whole lot.
My question is can a .22 Lr be sighted in at 50 yards and still be set to 200 yards usng these shims? If so, which size? If this worked, than I could put knobs on my Leupold 3.5x10 and use that if they can get it to track correctly. It would be a lot of trouble to change rings for squirrel hunting.
The SS wouldn't need shims, but 10X is too much power. Where is that SS variable anyhow? |

Depends on what combination of "shims" you use, thin rear & thick front will raise it enough for a 204yd zero using your existing "clickage" of most scopes and a 50/50 split.
Sighting 50/200 is no problem if you keep in mind your base/ring setup, the closer to say a 80-121yd zero without using your elevation/windage tube adjustment the better off you will be. If you mount the scope and it takes most of your elevation/windage tube adjustment to zero it, then you will be (technical term) "screwed" and will have to "field guessavate" your shots. |

Boneyfreak,
I would use a Leupold vari-x-III 40mm scope. I can get it sighted in at 100 yards with standard mounts. Lately I sight in at 85 yards. It's either Burris rings or SS. The Burris rings are probably ok. |
