Hi guys.
I need some adjustable mounts to help me zero my photon xt properly . 11mm dovetail and 30mm tube please . just thought I'd ask before I have to buy new ones . thanks for looking Ricky SORTED NOW THANKS

hi ricky
the other cheaper way is to shim your mounts, metalic shim tape or old film negatives,just a thought

Some times just reversing the mounts makes a difference IE front to back, or turn 180 deg, try that if not shim, or if your flush buy adjustable ones

I have all the camera film that I'm comfortable with in the rear mount now . I can use the scope but lack of elevation sees me holding over 1 mildot @ 30 yards which I don't like . these things must zero a lot easier on the powder burners .thanks anyway .

I have a Sportsmatch (AOP 56 IIRC) one-piece 30mm mount that I am willing to sell (adjustable for windage and e!evation) that I used for my XT Photon (couldn't get on with the display) should you wish to consider it.

Forget the camera film, just use a coke can cut up, and it taste good also got 3 strips in the back of mine which put zero @ x2 y4 will do for me.

Don't do it on an expensive scope as shimming can damage the tube !

I bought adjustable mounts . well worth the expense and made a very difficult scope to zero at air rifle ranges a doddle . Thanks for the advice anyway . I feel like I'm pushing my luck with three pieces of film negative , 3 pieces of coke can would keep me awake at night .
