Thermal Scope's Extended Mount For Bolt Action Rifles

Designed for bolt-action rifles, the extended mount model BE80995 allows the thermal scope's eyepiece to be positioned closer to the shooter's eye. Also, very often, a regular mount prevents the bolt on bolt-action rifles from opening properly, forcing you to install the scope in the farthest possible position, which leaves the eyepiece too far from your eye and prohibits normal aiming. Using the extended mount allows you to install the mount in the farthest position, enabling the bolt to open properly while still keeping the eyepiece in the correct position for comfortable aiming.

Choosing the correct mount depends on several key factors. First, it is essential to consider the model of your scope, as different scope types require different mounting positions. Second, the design and location of the Picatinny rail on your rifle play a critical role. Third, the configuration of your rifle’s stock must be considered, as it affects how far or close the shooter's eye will be. Finally, the shooter's anthropometric specifics and shooting habits influence the ideal scope position — some shooters prefer leaning more forward, while others favor a more rearward positioning of the cheek on the stock.  We encourage you to review the reference pictures below, which include rulers with clear measurements. By using a ruler on your rifle setup, you can visualize where the scope will sit and where the eyepiece will be located with different mount lengths and confidently choose the option that best fits your needs.

IMPORTANT: By default, Bering Optics will install the extended mount on the SUPER YOTER LRF and SUPER HOGSTER LRF in the Medium Length Position as shown in the middle image below. If you prefer the Maximum Length Position, please contact us after placing your order.

Bering Optics Super Yoter LRF Thermal Scopes Equipped With Extended Picatinny Mount For Installation On Bolt Action Rifles Are Shown Compared To Standard Tactical Mount

The photo shows the Super Yoter LRF Thermal Scope assembled with a customizable Extended Mount (BE80995). Upon request, the Extended Mount can be customized to either a medium length (in the middle) or the maximum length (at the top). The Ruler #1 illustrates the difference in positioning of the Super Yoter LRF when using the Extended Mount at medium and maximum length, compared to the same scope equipped with the Bering Optics Tactical QD Mount (BE80991). The “0” mark on the Ruler #2 aligns with the protrusion of the mount that extends into the groove of the Picatinny rail.

IMPORTANT: Bering Optics typically installs the Extended Mount on their non-LRF compact thermal scopes SUPER YOTER R, SUPER HOGSTER A3, HOGTER VIBE, HOGSTER STIMULS and HOSTER CHARGE in the LONG position and cut the mount to the length, as shown in the image above. If you prefer the MEDIUM or X-LONG Position, please contact us after placing your order.

The Extended Mount is custom-adjusted and factory-installed at your chosen lengthwise position to ensure it is completely aligned with the scope's optical and electronic axis to permanently avoid any recoil-induced misalignment during the scope's entire lifetime. When ordering a thermal scope with this mount, please reply to the order confirmation e-mail with the position you selected (if it differs from the default) or call us at (713) 364 2358 with any questions you may have.
