This is aimed at those who have never tried them. Due to a scope failure I needed to switch a scope for an upcoming match. The mount and all went from gun A to Gun B. Put a 3ft square of paper up at 20 meters. Bang, no cigar. Ok, reset both turrents to center. Bang , no cigar but worth a 1 pellet try. Moved to 10 yards . Bang , caught outer edge of paper at 8:00. Now we are getting somewhere. So since you want to aim the front of the scope towards where you hit I decided to try adjusting the rear inserts only first.I removed the rear rig top and loosened the front ring top a bit so the scope could freely realign itself. The fat half of the rear ring insert I rotated to 2:00 while rotating the thinner half to 8:00. Tightened up the rings with my torque wrench to 17 inch lbs. Bang, now instead of 15 inches or so away it's 2 inches. Adjust turrents, bang, hit my 1/4 inch aiming point. Scope is close optical center, zeroed at 20 meters, and it all took about 15 minutes. Gotta love those Burris Signature rings with inserts. Don't read the directions on adjutment, they confuse me. Just aim the front of the scope to where your shot hit. Always a plus insert and a minus insert in each ring or a pair of zero inserts.
