As my name states, I'm not much of a big game hunter these days so I'm a little lost on rifles. I need to get scope mounted on a new rifle. I have the base and rings, I would just prefer to have a professional mount and bore sight the scope. I live on the east side of DFW and work in the Plano/Richardson area so somewhere around there would be nice but not necessarily a must. Who do y'all recommend?


also, if this is the wrong forum on here to ask this, please slap me then move it

Cabelas in Allen has worked fine for me. Bore sighting is to be on paper at 25yds , 50 tops. They’ve met that expectation each time. You may recheck everything with blue loctite depending on the recoil of the rifle.

Tell us about your hardware: the rifle, mount, rings and scope. Most of us do it ourselves, and have the tools (torque wrench) to loan or wouldn't mind helping you.


An unethical shot is one you take, that you know you shouldn't.
