Scope Mount for A4

[jgaynor]

Also note that the bevel at the rear of the Redfield Jr. base fits perfectly with the eyepiece bell of the Lyman Alaskan. The bevel serves no purpose when an M73B1 (Weaver 330) is mounted as the W & E adjustment plate limits how far forward the scope can be located. Both the Weaver and the Lyman were fairly long eye relief scopes but the Weaver was not able to be used to full advantage since the leading edge of the W & E plate interferes with the back of the rear mounting ring.

just for information
shot fifty rounds today at 300 yards, used various loads, and the rifle hit well with all of them
strayed into the 9 ring 1/2 dozen times but stayed in the ten ring for the most part, shot
178 AMax,175 sierra, 175 grain vld berger, some moly 175's, probably could pick any one of them and shoot the rifle and narrow it down to a knats ass, but generally speaking, i think i like the Hornady 168 Gr A Max commercial loads that CMP has
had it been in combat, and shot at 300 yards, all would have been center mass/chest shots and all would have scored direct hit
that aint bad for a 69 yr old rifle
