Only if it is a LaRue mount.

Now those were supposed to "Laruin" your rails according the the homos at AAC back in the day. They were having a sissy feud with nut case Mark LaRue however.

The "Laruin" (which is also what I've heard it called) mounts are not allowed to be used at a bunch of police departments due to individual testing and departmental policies. LT is an old design. Its been awhile since I've heard of anyone using them on serious weapons.

You've got to remember, Pat R did not pick LT as his first choice to pick up goodies and give them away during courses.

I find it impossible to believe that two different rifles would have the exact same zero, no matter how repeatable the mount may be on a single rail.

Therefore, you will loose your zero on one of the rifles.

It works if you accept the different zeros and have different dope tables.

You could do that, but the windage is still a variable.

The dope table has windage setting for no wind too. See post #7.

I was poking fun at LaRue mounts allegedly chewing up pic rails and the ensuing meltdowns from back in the day.
