Some even equip their shotguns with open or aperture sights akin to a rifle. [8] Many shotgun bead sights are designed for a "figure 8" configuration, where a proper sight picture uses a bead mounted at the midpoint of the barrel in conjunction with a front bead mounted toward the muzzle. Many shotgun manufacturers, such as Browning, calibrate ...

Generally, scopes will have turret adjustments to allow the scope to be easily adjusted for various shooting conditions. For benchrest shooting, scopes with a second focal plane (SFP) reticle and click adjustments of 1 ⁄ 8 moa (approximately 0.036 mil) are most commonly used. Scope models with 0.025 mil and 0.05 mil adjustments are also ...

Early telescopic sights almost all have the rings that are fastened directly into tapped screw holes on the receiver, hence having no additional scope base other than the receiver top itself.
