Enlighten us on all the different mounts that you've tried and the failures. Thanks


On my first sako 85 I had warne mounts and they wouldn't hold the scope. It kept moving. I then changed redfield with set screw and ring it worked ok at least would keep scope from moving but I didn't like how it damaged the top of the action.

All my other rifles have S&K which work great I just wouldn't put them on my sako.
