I bought a taipan veteran .25 and noticed that the scope rail is slanted downward I guess for long range shooting. None of my scopes have enough adjustment to zero my rifle in. I run out of downward adjustment with the gun still shooting several inches high at 60 yards. This is really confusing. I cant find any rings that I can use to take out this angle. What do other veteran shooters use to correct this?

A cheap alternative is to shim the front ring. Or by the no limit mounts or buy a better scope for a high quality gun. I have a Veteran with the 20 MOA rail and a 20 MOA one piece scope mount for a total of 40 MOA and my scope has plenty of adjustment still.

Sun optics fully adjustable and sportsmatch fully adjustable.. Or angled rail.. Maybe backwards...

Sounds odd to me !
UTG pro makes a nice one piece mount that works great on mine!

All of my scopes are 1 inch tube scopes, which have less adjustment than 30mm scopes. Guns are heavy enough already. My heaviest scope weighs 13 ounces. But smaller scopes have their drawbacks I guess. Please correct me if I am wrong,but FX no limit mounts are not available for weaver style rails , at least that I could find.

I will correct myself, I searched again and found some fx rings for weaver rails. Also, my scopes are not cheap scopes. I have 3 burris timberline 4-14 scopes, that are wonderful airgun scopes. If I am figuring it right 20 moa is 6 feet at 100 yards that I have to dial out, less drop at that range. Thats a lot of correction. Anyway the fx rings will get me where I need to be.Thanks for the responses.
