Mounting The Eliminator III

LaserScope

1. Select a Weaver-style or Picatinny-style mounting base. If a

two-piece base is selected for a long action bolt rifle, the front
base should be a reversible base
which will need to be mounted with
the extension pointed to the rear. We
recommend the use of Burris Xtreme Tactical
Bases as they were designed to accommodate the
Eliminator III LaserScope.

2. Read the manufacturer’s directions regarding the installation of

mounts before beginning.

3. Clean the mounting area of the rifle with a chemical that removes

grease and oil. Pay special attention to screw holes. Use the same
chemical to clean the mounts. Do not allow the cleaning
chemical to come in contact with the stock or scope lenses.

4. After installing the base, position the scope so it offers the proper

eye relief. To do this, shoulder the rifle as you would in the field.
Position the scope as far forward as possible while achieving a full
field of view.

5. Note the two slots in the base or basses you will use to attach the

scope. With the mount clamps open fully, place the Mount Bolts
into those slots on the base. Now match up the Eliminator III
scope slots and place over the two
mount bolts - rocking the scope side
to side until the scope is flush with
the base. The mount clamps should
grip the lip of the base and the lip of
the rail on the underside of the
scope, as shown at right.
Finger-tighten only.

6. With hex nuts slightly loosened,

push the scope forward and
then firmly tighten both hex
nuts to 50 to 70 inch/pounds.

Eyepiece Focusing

1. Aim the Eliminator III LaserScope in a safe direction toward the
sky or a light colored wall. Glance through the scope and notice if
the reticle or crosshair is sharply focused. Most users will find that
no adjustment is necessary. If the reticle is not in sharp focus,
rotate the eyepiece focus ring until the reticle appears in sharp
focus. Double check your focus by taking quick glances through
the scope and make any fine tuning adjustments as necessary.

Sighting In

Do all shooting in a safe, authorized area. Use proper eye and hearing
protection and follow all safe shooting rules. Select the ammunition
you intend to use in the field and use it to sight in the firearm as well.

1. Bore sight your scope, OR place a target about two feet square

at 25 yards. Fire a shot at the bull’s-eye. Make the necessary
adjustments to the Windage and Elevation knobs. Remember,
with a click adjustment value of 1/8 inch at 100 yards it will require
four clicks to move the same 1/8 inch distance at 25 yards (32
clicks will move bullet strike 1 inch at 25 yards). Note the click
value indicated on a label under one of the adjustment caps.

2. Make adjustments on the scope by turning the adjusting screws

the necessary number of clicks. NOTE: The reticle is centered at
the factory. This permits adjusting the reticle equally in all
directions from the center position. Three shot groups are
suggested to determine the actual point of impact.

3. After the first group is fired, adjust the scope again. This adjust-

ment should bring the approximate center of the group to
coincide with the bullseye. Shoot additional groups as necessary.

4. Place the target at 100 yards or (meters if you will be using

meters.) Make the necessary adjustments so your group
coincides with the bull’s-eye. It is important that you sight in
exactly dead center at 100 yards for accurate calibration. DO
NOT sight in one, two, or three inches high at 100 yards.

5. Align the dial to read “0” without allowing the knob top to turn.

6. After making the adjustments, replace the adjustment caps. They

protect your scope from dust and moisture..
