I’ve seen both of those sites already. This is cantilever: ![http://www.tjgeneralstore.com/W611108340.GIF](http://www.tjgeneralstore.com/W611108340.GIF) The scope rail is welded to the barrel. ---

Ahhhhh. Well if you mount the scope to the receiver, as long as you mount in the same place each time you switch barrels it should stay zero’d. ---

You should have’t to remove the scope from the barrel when changing. If you’re that concerned about that kind of accuracy you should have a scope for every barrel you use, setup for the type of round it’s shooting(right down to the type of powder and bullet grain), mounted and sighted in. Especially for a sabot round. THAT is going to make more of a difference in accuracy than removing/installing scopes on picatinny rails during a barrel change. I’ve got a 22-250 Rem vamint rifle here that will shoot flies off a paper at 100yds, and when we remove/install the scope from it there’s no need to boresight/sight in at all in doing so. ---

Then what are you concerned with accuracy wise? The sights/bridge should be mounted on the barrel regardless and changing the barrel out should not affect the guns sights/accuracy if the barrel is designed for that gun. My dad has a few barrels for his weatherby break actions and those never change when switching barrels for different chokes. ---

My dad has a few barrels for his weatherby break actions and those never change when switching barrels for different chokes. The scope isnt mounted on the barrel, its mounted on the receiver. If I can find a cantilever barrel than the scope would be mounted on the barrel and I wouldn’t have to mess with anything, just swap barrels. I could by another gun, but if I can get a barrel for say $200 or so I’d be fine with that. I have a nice Stevens double barrel shotgun for trap and small game already. ---
