    I seriously doubt they will make your gun shoot better, tighter groups

    You still have to put a rear shim in, so what’s the point.

    Still wondering why our airguns have no 10-20moa built in them.

    p.s. all have bad design?
    I've never needed to shim a scope in my life

    Prevent the need rather than cure the fault

    So you are going anal about aligning the outer scope tube to an action block but not the barrel ...
    but without the shim You just cross x the erector tube inside...

    Fail!
    HA HA

    Sorry Krisko I'm not that technically minded, can you explain what you mean in layman's terms?

    Just buy guns with built in 20moa built into the rails. Or use adjustable scope rings to point the scope down following the trajectory as that’s where the poi will be.
    There is no point aligning the outer scope tube to the rifle’s action, as the inner erector tube is more important to get into the axis alas it is invisible.

    A scope performs best when left in optical axis every other setting is a compromise.

    Nearly forgot to say: if your barrel is bent or the bore is badly out of alignement, no matter how much you mess with the scope and the mounts it will not shoot straight, just like if you have bad a pellet barrel combination spitting it out in curves spiralling, you can’t fix it with scope rings no matter the costs lol
