Rifle Scopes Is this stupid

[Hatley]

I dont care to spend $100+ on a USO. DIP and EGW 20 moa bases are not readily available for a CZ 452.

Could I use one med and one low ring to attempt to cant my scope?

If so, not sure what MOA this would equal. 20, 50, 100?

Is this just a stupid attempt?

Thanks,

Re: Is this stupid

That's not gonna work. The rings would be out of alignment, and the edges of the holes would contact the scope tube and crush it.

Yep...110%, CERTIFIED STUPID!!

It won't work and you will seriously damage your scope trying to do it (which I am betting will end up costing you more than the price of a proper canted scope base)!

Re: Is this stupid

No you cant do that. You will bend your scope tube. problem is the rings will not be in alignment. Canted bases make the rings line up like a kids slide. You would be creating a stair step.

Stupid idea. Rather just buy a set of Burris Signature Zee Rings, in 1" or 30mm sizes you can use the ring inserts for either 10 or 20 MOA of cant.

That's what I do for my Kimber HS 22 LR that has no canted base available.

Re: Is this stupid

Thought it might be.
After BJ described the stair step and slide I was able to visualize it. That was a pretty stupid thought.
I will check into the Burris

Thanks

+1 on the Signature Zee rings. Very economical way to get the job done.

I use them on several guns. You are guaranteed no ring marks.
As for MOA value, I don't think Burris describes the inserts in MOA value. I think they say the 20 is .020" or something to that effect.

Re: Is this stupid

There are 20 MOA bases available for a CZ452. Rimfire technologies. Call and ask them. Looks like they're updating there site and the CZ section isn't working correctly for me.

Re: Is this stupid

Thanks for the heads up. Someone Sent me a link to purchase direct from dip. I called and they have the 20 moa base in stock. Should get it next week

I have thought that in a few threads, lately.

Re: Is this stupid

Probably not stupid just inexperienced. But that is why he came here to get help right?

There are no stupid questions just a bunch of stupid guys too arrogant to ask who then try their stupid ideas and end up costing themselves a lot of money or a thumb or something else.

Good for you for asking!

+1 on the Burris Signature rings. They are the real deal!

Cheap fix, you can adjust them to any MOA droop you want up to 20 MOA, not scope rings dents, and they hold very well!

Re: Is this stupid

Good think you asked instead of just doing it! LOL!

Yeah there is a thread where I said it and a nutswinger started cussing at me like some internet weight lifter.

To the OP, dont do it.

Re: Is this stupid

Don't do it wont work like others have said just buy a MOA base or check out the rings Bob suggested

Don't worry about some of the reply's you got there have been a few troll's around here lately and well I suppose they thought you may be one.

I don't think you are just had an idea that you didn't need a canted base ?

Hey guy's it probably isn't as stupid as it sound well it is but how many times have we seen people trying to put there canted bases on the wrong way , I guess it is not as easy to understand as some of the more experienced shooter's think it is.
