Rules of thumb...
If you spend $1000 for a good rifle, don’t waste it by putting a $99 dollar Walmart/Chinese made scope on it.
If you spend more than $300 on optics, don’t waste it by using $20 aluminum mounts.
You’ll be much happier and get the results you want by saving up and getting good stuff the first time.
I'm pretty sure that the target stays at its distance, no matter what. (Also I'd call it an optical aiming device...)
My husband bought me a Christensen Arms precision .308 to replace my Remington SPS (there’s something about the Remington he doesn’t like).
The Leica scope we bought was just as pricey as the rifle but the view through it is unreal! It makes a nice rifle into a GREAT rifle!
One of the things I do is lap the rings after installing them on the rifle. It is a real eye opener to see how much the rings are uneven with each other.
