I like that it's setup for iron sights, or target scope bases too! Last edited by Vall; 09/05/25 08:56 PM.

Vall Sidelock Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 778 Likes: 40 Oregon	Have you tried putting one of your 03's on a rest and then hold one of your Alaskan scopes where it's got proper focus to judge what eye relief it needs? I do this often to check old scopes before going through mounting them.
