Anybody turned a Frontier into a Compact? - 10/25/14
Want to put a Vari-X III 1.75-6x32mm E w German No.1 onto my .358 Frontier w/o going to High or Extra-High rings.
Took the four hex screws outta the fwd base but it won't come off. Looks like two blued steel studs also keep base on barrel.
The manual, of course, doesn't even want you to use a conventional scope on a Frontier, so it gives no clue.
Figured I'd check with Y'all before I break out a pry bar to see if any of you have successfully overhauled a Frontier for std scope with ocular bigger than 1-in. or so.
