Title: scope base? is there a scope riser with adjustable elevation?
Post by: NW-GSP on April 13, 2016, 01:32:56 PM: Is there a scope riser that is elevation adjustable?. I have a basic 3x9 scope on my 6.8spc ar but would like to be able to adjust for different distances and was hoping that it would be as easy as using a scope riser that would be adjustable like the higher end scopes have.

Yes just like that but that one is $400 for a couple hundred more I could get a good vortex scope.
I'm guessing spending the money for a better scope would be better but was hoping for a cheaper option.

There are some old mounts built for the old sçopes without internal adjustments that will do the job for you. I think one was called a Karushky or something like that. I'm pretty sure you will only find them for older rifles.
