IMO yes. I have (now) two pretty good scopes. Scope One (1-4x) has an excellent QD mount, and the new scope (3-12x) is getting a QD mount soon. I have Moved scope 1 back and forth onto two rifles and figured out my poi shift. Very repeatable so I can click back and forth quite easily on the turrets after I switch. Two scopes will be more than adequate to cover my needs with my three AR platforms. Eventually I'd like to get a high-end scope with about a 6-25x magnification range, then I can run the full gambit.
sell the 3 decent scopes and invest in good QD mounts and one good scope.
eta. I also have a cheap scope that is actually pretty decent for long range on a bolt gun. It will get the 6-25x, but will probably get high end QD rings in case I want to put on something else.

Thanks crays, too far south for me though. Wanted to get some booze with this gift card![]()
Howdy ho's....
Yeah, HC....I agree with Bogies advice. I only have one halfway decent scope, and am in need of some higher quality stuff.
If you don't count red dots, I have two decent scopes: bushnell 6-24x50 and leupold mk4 lrt 3.5-10x40. They are both in QD mounts, and its an easy and repeatable process to move them when I can get a chance to confirm the zero.
heres the easy process:
1. Mount the scope into the mount and onto the first rifle. I've made a video on how to do that.
2. Zero the optic to the rifle.
3. Remove the QD mount from the rifle and install onto another firearm.
4. Re-zero the optic to the new weapon. WRITE DOWN WHAT ADJUSTMENTS NEED TO BE MADE!!!!
5. Reset the zero stop/turret, if your optic has such a feature.
done.
Just doing what I can to stay on this side of the dirt.
No kidding. Serious lack of ho presence today.
