    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.

    Crickets. Occasionally with protein powder dusted on them. I bought mine large. Wasn't sure if if had been handled, so I opted to forego handling. I do let the one at the butterfly pavillion crawl on me.

    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.

    Scope for every rifle, decent+ and upgrade each chance you get.

    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.
