High-quality mounts are now technically mature and enable an optimum combination of rifle and target optics.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Perhaps often underestimated:<\/strong> Since high-quality mounts are <strong>Extremely precise and complex components<\/strong> with tolerances of a hundredth of a mm, the price is correspondingly high.<\/p>\n<p>Many hunting schools therefore emphasise the importance of optics when it comes to weapons. <strong>The saying: \"Never skimp on the look and certainly not on the assembly\"<\/strong> has its justification.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Scope Mounting Basics - Gunsmith Tip\" width=\"1020\" height=\"574\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/J3lNSCrGthM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The mount as the link between the scope and the firearm ultimately determines whether the hunting firearm as a whole leads to the complete satisfaction of the hunter or shooter - or not.<\/p>\n<h3>Self-assembly of the riflescope:<\/h3>\n<p>It <strong>There are more and more gun buyers who want to mount their optics themselves.<\/strong> <strong>Standardised drilling patterns with screw connections on the weapons make this possible today.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A large <strong>Advantage<\/strong> is certain that the <strong>owner familiarises himself with the weapon during self-assembly and gains experience with balistics by shooting at the shooting range.<\/strong> of different types of ammunition. Perhaps this will also make it possible to handle the weapon more safely.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Important: It is always particularly important to read the installation instructions of the respective installation manufacturer carefully before installation.<\/strong> In it you will find detailed information on the right tools and also some tips and tricks for professional installation.<\/p>\n<p>After that, nothing should stand in the way of success.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here you will find an overview of the most common mounting types and manufacturers:<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\" border=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-size: 100%;\"><strong>Assembly system<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-size: 100%;\"><strong>Assembly<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-size: 100%;\"><strong>Special features<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-size: 100%;\"><strong>Manufacturer<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td><span style=\"font-size: 100%;\"><strong>Ziegler Suhler <\/strong><strong>Hook-in mounting<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-size: 100%;\">Gunsmith<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 20px;
