andyh990 Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 Hi all I have a sako quad with a 22lr barrel and 17hmr barrel. Just wondering what set ups anyone else have with this particular rifle and calibre's and how they find changing the barrels and whether or not they hold there zero. I have mine set up with leupold QRW rings on a weaver rail, with yukon photon for the .22lr and simmons wtc for .17hmr. Changing barrel and scope is simple but haven't had the chance to really test whether it holds the zeros ok. Any advice on the set ups or any other set ups which up better or work well for you please let me know thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keg Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 I have, ended up getting a new action for the .22 as It never went back exactly as the previous barrel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breastman Posted June 2, 2014 Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 When i had mine i had the .22lr and .17HMR barrels. I fitted it with an MTC Viper scope and the mounts that came with it were JUST high enough to let the barrels come out without having to take the scope off. It did hold zero after swapping the barrels out and back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmints Posted June 2, 2014 Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 What does a 60yrd zero on a .22lr translate to on the HMR? Just asking out of curiosity really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breastman Posted June 2, 2014 Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 It would be different for every gun/scope combination, and probably slightly different even with the same make model scope/rings. IIRC i had to dial my scope from a 20m zero with the .22lr barrel 8 clicks up and 5 right to give a 100m zero with the 17HMR barrel but i've no idea what that would translate to both barrels shot at the same distance. I used to have the adjustment taped to the scope cover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bewsher500 Posted June 2, 2014 Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 use QR mounts and 4 scopes holds perfectly well most times bought a second placcy one for a uber short ,22 as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
