scope mount ??

[southernhunter]

can you mount a scope with the top to the side and the the side to the top ,or will it not set right??. never tryed this but it would just work better that way on my rig.

 

[mr.big]

I dont really see why it wouldnt,,right would be up and up would be left,,LOL..

Might be a difference in elevation and windage amounts.

If it's mounted level and straight, I don't see much of an issue.

PS:

Why may I ask are you having to do this?????

 

[Model70Man]

Some left handed shooters do that. I don't, but some do.

 

[WTM]

you sure can, but your elevation will now be your windage and your windage will be your elevation.

have to do this on my side mount on my winchester 94 to eject the spent casings.

the scope is on a mini 14 ,.i do shoot left handed but also the casings was sometimes nicking the adjustment on the side of the scope when they was ejected. it may have not been a big deal .but i thought if i can turn it why not then i wouldnt have to worry about it . so i did and its working fine as of now. but kinda confussing for a redneck like myself when up aint up and right aint right "lol" . but i got .
