so if i put my rifle, comp down, in an ultrasonic cleaner to clean out the comp, will there be any effect on the scope? obviously it handles recoil.
 
You are asking if the scope will be effected by just placing the rifle muzzle down? Is that what you are asking? If so, no.

yeah, will the ultrasonic vibrations at the muzzle end of the barrel somehow jar something loose way back in the scope. this is the dumb question thread and this is or is prob a dumb question.
 
Is there a reason you cannot take the comp off? Or is it stuck and has lead to this question? I have had to stick a muzzle device into a small cup of solvent before overnight to break them free, but they have always come off after that. I just lean the rifle up in a corner somewhere. Then I can do a more thorough cleaning with it removed.
