Anyone had a problem using Optilock Weaver bases?
Fitted a scope of known reliability in Optilock rings (same rings I used that scope in on a Sako 75 with no issues at all) onto a rifle which has Weaver bases installed, after shelling out for new Optilock Weaver bases. Went to zero it this afternoon and ran out of horizontal adjustment. Same rifle with a scope in Burris Ringmounts on the same Weaver bases zeroed without a problem. I therefore know there’s no issue with the scope, the bases installed on the rifle or the rings. Only unknown quantity is the Optilock Weaver bases.
