Reviews & Ratings for Wheeler Professional Scope Mounting Kits — 142 reviews — Page 1

Heavy duty, well packaged. Overall it is industrial quality

The futher you shoot the more you need this.

Having previously been disappointed bases, rings, and scope being mounted / bore sighted locally, I found the Wheeler Kit at Optics Planet for a very reasonable price. I could not be happier with the current install and the timeliness of the delivery and ease of the transaction. I have used Optics Planet in the past with a similar experience. Highly Rated in my book.

Right product, fast shipment as always, large selection of products, some of the best prices on the market

This kit really helps me with scope alignment, especially when it comes to standard Leupold rings. Making sure things are officially straight and not canted one way or the other. The kit can also help you figure out if you have misaligned recievers. We have all heard of recievers being drilled/tapped incorrectly. This kit can help you see that. Highly advise you get one one of these, especially if you mount your own scopes at home.

Highly rate these tools. I already owned Wheeler's 89 piece Gunsmithing Tool Set so I knew I'd be buying quality and I'd be saving money doing mountings and remountings myself.

This wheeler kit was everything I needed to mount my Glass. As always O.P. best place to shop

Great product, Great store Mounted a vortex on my are with no problem at all

The kit performs as expected. The levels are a little flimsy, but they do work.

Good kit, good instructions, good overall value. I love the little “FAT” wrench! It makes it so easy to get all the screws evenly torqued I wonder how I ever got along without it (and realized how badly I had been over tightening everything). As for the actual lapping it was very interesting to see how little contact was being made at first; even on a $100+ mount! I did find that automotive type valve lapping paste did better than the stuff in the kit. It was a little finer (although still 220 grit) and a little thinner (water based) and would recommend it. Otherwise no complaints here. Now that I finally made the jump to high quality optics I felt obligated to offer them the best possible execution. For years I would just slap whatever cheap scope on any old rings and be done... such a waste! Now that I have the right tool for this job I actually went back and re-mounted some other units. Never again will I mount a scope without first lapping the rings! For a $1000+ optic a $100 tool is cheap insurance.

You need one of these if you plan on mounting 5 or more scopes: The advantage of having a steady mounted scope is extremely important. However, if you only plan on mounting a few, this investments is probably not worth your money. However, the torque wrench has many other applications other than scope mounting.
