Blaserbuds; the worlds superlative information source, for these products
For the enthusiast of Blaser and other firearms related to the Blaser family, such as Mauser, Sauer, Rigby, and other fine European sporting arms. http://www.blaserbuds.com/forum/
We all know that mounting a scope is not something that everyone can do. Anyway with a scope with rail and some basic tools I believe almost everyone is capable of doing it. And that is not the most important part. On a nice rifle like our beloved Blaser a railed scope is much nicer. Here is a video of Blaser mounts and a guide on how to mount a scope with the integrated rail. Enjoy.

Only way to go no matter what rifle you're using. It's such a simple installation and anyone with basic skills can accomplish it in seconds. Biggest plus is your scope remains nice and not damaged with unsightly ring marks. Purchased a Zeiss Conquest some years back that came with Talley rings on it. When I removed them, I found the scope tube was dented. Seen many a scope with serious ring marks caused by Talley rings. Gunsmith buddy says they can be installed without doing damages which is very true. Issue is very few folks have a clue as to how to do it without leaving ring marks and they are too cheap (and or proud) to have a smith do it.

Also, some idiot invented the 2/3 ring that snaps over the barrel of the scope, almost guaranteeing a scratch. I hate the design with a fiery burning passion, but occasionally there's no choice. Leupold, Innomount, and Dentler all make these criminal devices.

Amen!!!! Unbelievably stupid design.

DITTO! I recall hearing there was a good reason but in my opinion it was about as stupid a move as anyone could make. And of course everybody else had to climb on too. Whenever I see an old Blaser Mount with rings as long as it's not crazy high, I pick it up. I have a few of the new ones and hate using them but they didn't give us much choice.
