patterdale 673 Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Hi all might be a bit of a silly question but I've never done this before. I've just got my self a BSA lightning se grt but haven't got my scopes and mounts yet.my intensions are to mount my red led cree ultra fire 501b onto the scopes.is there a particular place to mount it? ie in front/behind front mount or in front/behind rear mount or is it personal prefrence.the reason im asking is i don't want to set up and zero my scopes and then have to move mount forward/ back,obviously im going to wait until I've got everything before i set up.was just wondering what everyone elses set up is for best results and what clamps are you using? cheers folks 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

evenbad 8 Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 (edited) doesn't matter where to be honest but suggest an adjustable torch mount so you can align beam with you crosshairs for a nice view of that poor rabbit before he goes in the pot , happy hunting Edited March 6, 2014 by evenbad Quote Link to post Share on other sites

When you've got your scope zeroed then it's personal preference where you fit the lamp as some people fix it to the scope and some fit it to the barrel , just a matter of what feels comfortable again as in the balance 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bbjaccov5 4 Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 If you are mounting it on the scope i would sugest to put the lamp as far back as possible or use a sunshade. Otherwise you might get reflections in you're scope. Gr Jacco Quote Link to post Share on other sites
