battery type CR2032 (Fig.1) .

MOuNtING:

Rifl e s c o p e s can be m o u nted util izing 30mm mou n ting rings. ATN mount­ing rings allow to change the position of the riflescope on the weapon in

relation to a shooter by 1/3 of inch. Thus obtained, such positions are

ad diti o n al to t h e alread y avai l a ble fixe d positions o n the we aver r ail.
Fo r this pu r p o se in th e base of a mounting ring ther e is a ra i l with a fixing pro j e c tion.
In case you nee d to c hange th e posit ion of the rif lescope addition ally pl ease follow the steps mentioned

below for both rings (Fig.2) :

1. Lo o sen the t wo s c rews at t a c h ing the r a il to th e ring.

2. Take the rail out of the groove.

NOTE: If the rail is not taken out easily screw up one of the s crews i nto the
threaded aperture at the middle of the rail until it stops. Then carefully con­ti n ue ro tating of the s crew until i t pushes out a rail from a groove.

3. About-face the rail.

4. Put the rail into the groove.

5.

Fi x the rail with the t wo s crews.

Fo r mountin g the rifles c o p e on the w eave r rail:

1. Lo o sen the f i xing screws on the s ides of t h e mounting r ings.

2.

Pl ace the rif l escope on the weaver rail s o that t h e projection of the r a il, which i s in the b ase of t h e ring,

enters the r e c e s s in the rail.

3. Tighten the fixing screws of the mounting rings.

CAUTIO N : B e sure gun is not load ed. Use safe g un handli n g pro c edure s all th e time.

FOcusING:

Whi l e holding t h e scope about four in c hes from yo ur eye, quickly glance thro u g h the eyepiece at a
featureless, flatly lit bright area such as a wall or the sky.

CAUTION: Viewing the sun can cause serious eye injury, never look at the
sun with t his product or even the naked eye.

If the reticle is not v i s ible sharply turn the eyepie c e (either direc tion) a

few turns (Fig.3).
Quickly glance through the scope again. If the focus has improved, but

is still not perfect, continue focusing. If the focus condition become
wo r s e turn t h e focus oppos i te directio n .

NOTE: Unlike other sights, 12-36x80 has additional system for focusing
wh en shooti ng at s m all dist ance (Fig .4).

CAUTION: Be sure gun is not loaded. Use safe gun handling procedures
al l the time.

zerOING:

CAUTION: All shooting should be done at an approved range or other safe areas. Eye and ear protection
is recommended.

Danger: If you used a bore-obstructing device, remove it before proceeding. If the barrel has-been drilled
for a mount, check that the screws do not protrude into the bore. Do not fire live or even blank ammunition
with an obstructed barrel. An obstruction can cause serious damage to the gun and possible personal injury
to yourself and others nearby.

From a s teady res t position, fire thr e e rounds a t a 100 yar d target.

Observe bullet strike on target and adjust windage and elevation screws
as needed to correct aim. You will need to

remove the dust caps from the top of the
windage and elevation adjustments to do

this (Fig.5).

NOTE: Each click of adjustment changes
bullet strike by the amount shown on the
chart below.

When you have fi n ished zer o ing, repla c e

windage and elevation dust caps.

ranges the bullet drop compensator should be adjusted for 200, 300,
400, and 500 yards ( and 1000 yards for 8-24x65LU and 12-36x80LU).

Depending on the distance click the bullet drop compensator to the

ticular d i st anc e. Your s c o p e also comes with o t h er cams allow i n g you to

change your bullet drop compensator to work with the different rifles.

NOTE: 12-36x80 has special mechanism for bullet drop compensation
with compensator for .50 BMG. Compensator provides shooting at the
dist ance from 200 up to 3000 yards. (See page 7 for instu ctions.)

To set the necessary distance combine the figure with the mark on the immovable upper part of the
mechanism.

chaNGING the Bullet drOP cOMPeNsatOr

Set the bullet drop compensator to the 100 -yards (5x33LU, 2- 6x40LU,
3-9x55LU, 4-12x60LU) or 200 yards (4-12x75LU, 6-18x65LU) range.

Then remove the elevation dust cover. Next you will find three small set
screws on the bullet drop compensator right above the yardage numbers.

Remove these screws and lift the cam off of the scope. (Fig.9) On c e you

have done this select the desired caliber cam you would like to use and

place this cam where you removed the previous one (make sure that a
replacement cam is set to the 100-yard range for 5x33LU, 2-6x40LU,
3-9x55LU, 4-12x60LU and 200 yards for 4-12x75LU, 6-18x65LU). Then

tighten the cam by putting the three set screws back. Finally place the
dust back.

retIcle systeM:

Upon initial use of the ATN Professional Variable Power scope you may notice a somewhat unusual
behaviour o f the ret i c l e syste m. One, the reticle will incre a se or decre a se with t h e power change. Two,
the reticle will move from the center when you adjust windage and/or elevation. These are not defects.

As the name implies, our main goal while designing this line was to provide the customer with the most
accur ate and reliable s i g hting sy stem in t he world. In order to achieve this , we had to depar t fr o m the

mor e “conve ntional” designs that the American consu m er s are s o familiar with.

retIcle chaNGING sIze:

In any optical design the reticle has to be placed either in the front focal plane or the rear focal plane

(the only exception to this rule are the Shepherd scopes that contain two reticles, one in each plane).

The rear focal plane, or behind the magnification module, was the initial and less complicated, as well
as less expensive solution. Up to this day, almost all American scopes and inexpensive imports uti-

lize this design. However, there is an inherent flaw in this type of system. Because the magnification

module is housed within sliding mechanical parts, some tolerance for lateral and vertical movement has
to be allowed. Therefore, when the power is changed the point of impact may shift as much as several
inches. A more reliable design is to place reticle in the front focal plane, i.e. in front of the magnification
module. In this situation movement of the module will have no effect on the point of impact. The reticle

will increase/decrease in direct proportion to magnification, i.e. if you change the magnification from 6x
to 18x , t h e image is in c rease d t h r e e time s a n d the reti c le alon g w i t h it. Th e s i z e of t h e r e ticl e i n r e latio n to
size of t h e target w ill not c h ange. The point of impact rem a i ns constant at all t imes.

MOvING retIcle

A somewhat similar situation take place with windage and elevation adjustments.
Most of the American scopes and low-priced imports adjust the front tube for windage and elevation.

This action moves the whole image while the reticle remains in apparent center. While aesthetically
appea ling, this system lacks inh e rent accur acy.

In the Professional series, windage and elevation adjustments are effected by moving the reticle itself.

Sinc e i n o u r system the o b j ec t i ve lens is f i x e d , there wi l l n e v e r b e any distor ti o n , w hic h m ay a p pear whi l e
moving the front tube of the scope. Further more, since the reticle weighs only a few grams, it allows

for extremely precise (1/8” at 100 yards), reliable, and repeatable adjustments. The optical effect of

this system is that the reticle will not be located in the center once sighting in has been accomplished.

This situation can be remedied however through the use of vertical and horizontal shims available any

gunsmith.

the atN adjustaBle rINGs

ATN adjustable rings (Fig.10) have rotatable inserts which allow for as
much as 20 Minutes of Angle, or approximately 20 inches at 100 yards,
mounting adjustment without touching the scopes internal windage
and elevation mechanisms. This in turn allows the user to maintain the
scopes center of optical axis when performing the initial installation of
a new ATN rifle scope. This feature is extremely important in eliminat­ing paralla x and maintaining a centered reticle with application of these

units, while offering greater overall zero range selectivity.

Each ATN scope is furnished with a set of non-of fset rings useable with

any Weaver or Picatinny style mount. These may also be reversed for

more inter ring distance options or the recoil lug on the underside of

each ring can be reversed (turned 180 degrees) by removing the two screws attaching it to the ring.

Additionally, we offer an offset ring that when coupled with either standard or extended bases, will allow
proper mounting on most any production or custom act i o n . T h e r i n g s p r ovided with your s cope have t h e
corr e c t height t o allow for the n e c essar y bell clea rance requir ed.

INstallatION

The Select the appropriate bases for your application. These can be 2 piece, one piece or rail. When

installing the bases be sure and use Locktite or an equivalent thread locker on the mounting screws.
Most bases install with 6-48 screws and these should be torqued to about 22 inch/lbs. Generally all
receiver/base combinations have some degree of misalignment. However, this is not a problem with
the ATN rings as this is easily compensated for by the floating ring inserts, assuring a stress free scope/
mount/receiver combination, another important accuracy consideration.

At tach t he rings to the base s and determine if you have the r i g ht distance c e nter to center.

The rings must not be closer than 1/8 inch to any place here the scope transitions from the 3 0 mm main
tu b e includin g the tu rret area. Clos er than 1/ 8 inch may cause turret or variable po wer ad justment bind-

ing. The available offset ring has 1 inch of distance form the center of the ring and used with or without

extension base(s), if necessar y, should easily cover all base mounting

or eye relief problems. Tighten the ring securing side nuts finger tight.

Remove the tops of both rings and inserts and cradle the

scope in their lower halves. Install the top halves and tighten
each ring’s four screws to finger tight ( Fi g.11 ) . Do not over
tighten or you will be unable to rotate the offset inserts.
The use of a bore sight or collimator at this stage is very helpful setting
the initial alignment of scope and bore. This can also be accomplished

Figur e 11

The table below provides the minimum focusing distances for our variable riflescopes. As you are aware,
due to their highly advanced design, our scopes have no parallax. But if they were focused to the distance

below minimal, a parallax-like effect (i.e. target in focus while reticle is not, or vice versa) will appear.

the bases to adjust the scope to zero windage (Fi g.12 ).

Alternately loosening and tightening the side nuts while checking the
bores alignment will move the scope crosshair accordingly:

Looking from behind the scope in normal shooting position.
Loosening the rear rings left side nut and then retightening the right side

will move the crosshair to the left. Reversing this procedure will move the

cros s h air to t he right.
Ad j u stment usi n g the fro nt rings scr ews will result i n the opposit e.

Loosening the front rings left side nut and tightening the right will move the

cros s h air to t he right.

described scope picture by inserting a round rod into the holes drilled in
the insert (Fig.14 ) . The shank (blunt end) of a 9/ 64 drill works per fectly.
When the reticle is centered, tighten the ring screws exerting torque on

sIGht IN yO u r rIFle

Chances are your rifle will not shoot to your bore sighted zero or to the zero you desire. This is primarily
due to the rifles recoil impulse prior to the bullets departing the barrel. Recoil for RH twist barrels tends

to carry th e shot up and to th e left. If you are more than 1 i nch in any d irection from t he center of the b ull

or from your desired zero, adjust the scope using the rings insert mechanism or the rings side nuts as

de s cr ib ed a bo v e . It i s al w ays b e st t o l o os en t he t o p h a lv e s o f t he r in g j u st e no u gh to a l lo w fre e ro t at io n or

vi a the inser t. You w ill n ote that each i nsert h as a t hick and a t hin side that al low a centric orientation of
the s c o pes body in the rings. T he scope’s elevation m ay be a d justed as follows :

Placement of the thick side at 6 O’clock in the rear ring will result in raising the crosshair 10 inches at 100
yards. Conversely placing the thick side at 12 O’clock will lower it 10 inches. Again similar adjustments
of the front ring’s insert will have an opposite ef fect; the thick side at 6 O’clock will lower the impact 10
inches at 10 0 yards. T h e refore, placement of the thick side of the rear ring at 6 O’c lock an d the front’s at
12 O’clock will raise the impact a maximum of 20 inches at 100 yards. Any combination from 0 to 20 MOA

is possible depending on the orientation of the inserts in tandem.

Note: Any orientation of the inserts such that the thick sides of the inserts are not vertical, i.e., not at 12 or
6 O’clock, will result in a windage change in addition to elevation. In this case, once elevation has been
ac hieved a final windage adjustmen t must be carried o ut using the sid e nuts a s descri bed above.

Once your basic zero is set you can now use the scopes internal adjustments to fine tune impact to any
sho oting cond i tion wi th the c o nfidenc e that your optics are free of accurac y rob b i ng parallax and stress.

MaINtaINING yOur rIFlescOPe:

Your rifle scope is waterproof and shockproof. However, you should never try to take apart or clean it
inter nally (it will void your warranty) . If your scope ever d oes n eed a ny repair or adjustment, it should be
returned to ATN’s service department. Optical surfaces will perform their best if they are wiped clean

from tim e to t ime wi th a l ens tis sue or with o ptical qualit y l ens pa per li ke th ose for eyeglas ses or camera

Base MOuNt FOr 12x36

Base Mount fo r 12 x 3 6 was developed fo r extreme r ange rifles like t h e 50 BMG. W i th 300 MOA of eleva­tion, ranging in access of 3000 Meters is possible. Used in conjunction with a scope internal adjust­ments t h ere are thr e e m od e s o f vert i cal a n d t wo m o d es of h o r izont a l a d jus t m ent . I t i s i mpo r ta n t t o i nst a l l
the riflescope with the reticle’s convergence point on the center of the scopes optical axis. Along with

the elevation capabilities there is also more than enough windage adjustment in the base to accomplish
this task, regardless of base or installation range requirements. There are several mounting systems

available t hat fac i litate t h is, but n o ne other than Base M o unt for 12 x 3 6 t h at allow this at extreme r a nges.

Thes e instructions are intended to h e lp you t a ke ful l advant age of th i s remarkabl e mount.

INstallatION

Base Mount for 12x36 requires Picatinney or slotted weaver style base for attachment to the firearm. It is

important to keep from over tightening the both the rail
screws and the ring screws (Fig.15) . The large bearing
surface on both allows minim a l tor q u e o n t h e s c r e w s . It
is r ec omm en ded t o g r ip th e s ho rt e nd of a n a ll en wr enc h

to apply torque so that torque is minimized on the ring
screws, then add another 1/8 turn utilizing the long end

of the wrench. The mounting wing nuts can be tight­ened adequately using a pair of needle nosed pliers.

Once mounted on the rifle install the scope in the rings

using the above described torque technique applied in

a figure 8 pattern. Be sure that the scope’s crosshair is

squar e w i th the re c eiver a n d bore. A bor e s i ght h e l ps to
both align the X-hair and in the below described initial
adjustment of the scope.

As stated earlier it is v e r y impor tant to c enter the scopes opti c al axis for long range sho o t i n g , t h u s a l l ow-

ing minimal optical distortion. The vertical and horizontal positions of the retical want to be centered in
their respective travel range. Typically this initial zero is then adjusted to the desired point of impact for

the chosen ammunition using the scopes internal adjustments. While this is an acceptable and widely
used practice the end result is to remove the X-hair from the center of the optical axis, even when using
a scope that has a self-centering reticle. The self-centering refers to the position of the reticle in the

scopes field of view not its position relative to the optical axis. Using Base Mount for 12x36 impact can
and should be used to for initial sighting in or zero. Ideally this should be done at 200 yards or 100 yards

if t he ballis t i c cur ve fo r your c h o sen ammo i s known.

Referring to Figure use the following sequence:

1. Check the w i n d age for zero. If the cro s s h air is no t centere d adjust it by rotat­ing the a centric inserts via the following method: Use the slot milled into the
top half of each ring to access the holes drilled thru the insert) (Fig.16 ) . Move
the inserts radially to achieve the above described scope picture by inserting a
round rod into the holes drilled in the insert (F i g.17) . Th e shank ( blunt e n d ) of a

9/64 drill works perfectly. When the reticle is centered, tighten the ring screws

exerting torque on the short end of the supplied allen wrench. It is not neces ­sar y t o use t h e leverage of the l ong arm to tigh ten the screws any more th an an

additional 1/8 turn.

2. Set Ballistic Cam (BC) “A” (Fi g .18 ) on position 2 (200 Yards) by locking the
BC Lock Lever (BCL) “C” in the down position and turning it full CW as viewed

from above.

3. Lock out BC by placing the BC Lock “C” in the up position and run the mount’s
Main Vertical Adjuster (MVA) “B” to its lowest setting by turning it full CW, also.

The mount is n ow positio n e d for i n itial sight in at 20 0 yards.

4. Using the following graduations sight scope in for 200 yard zero utilizing only the mounts adjusters
“B” and “ D”.

You will note that each insert has a thick and a thin

side that allow a centric orientation of the scopes body

in the rings. The scope’s elevation may be adjusted
as follows: Placement of the thick side at 3 O’clock in

therea r r ing will result i n s hif t i n g l ef t ward t h e c r o s s h a ir
20 inches at 200 yards. Conversely placing the thick

side at 9 O’clock will shift it 20 inches to the right. Again
similar adjustments of the front ring’s insert will have
an opposite effect; the thick side at 3 O’clock will shift

the impact to the right 20 inches at 200 yards. There-

fore, placement of the thick side of the rear ring at 3
O’clock and the front’s at 9 O’clock will shift the impact to the lef t a maximum of 40 inches at 200 yards.
Any combinati o n from 0 to 20 MOA is po s s i ble depending on the or i e ntation of the inse r ts i n tandem.

Note: Any orientation of the inserts such that the thick sides of the inserts are not horizontal, i.e., not at
3 or 9 O’clock, will result in a elevation change in addi-

tion to windage. In this case, once windage has been
achieved a final elevation adjustment must be carried
out using the side nuts as described above.

WARNING ! Tighten each ring’s four screws after each
adjusting before shooting!

5. Using the scope’s internal vertical adjuster (center
turret) finalize your 200 yard zero. Remember you do
not want to move the reticle if possible, but 1 to 11/2
MOA is not critical. If your scope’s clicks or graduations
are 1/ 8 in c h @ 100 ya r ds ( o r ¼ @ 20 0 ) t h is w o uld b e n o

mor e than 8 to 12 clicks e l evati o n.

NOTE: One MOA, or Minute of Angle, is basi­cally 1 inch at 100 yards, 2 inches @ 200,
3 i nc hes @ 3 00, etc.

Properly used your scope’s reticle will now remain centered on its optical axis if the following shooting

Normall y o n l y t h e ve r ti c al or elevat ion fine adju s t e r ( i n t e r nal scop e ) i s u s ed to fine-tun e i n d ividua l s i g h t ­ing. Windage is best done with reticle assisted “hold off”. The reason for this is that it is relatively easy

to remember e l evati o n adjustment s, but s o m ewhat h arder to keep tra c k of windag e.

Out to 10 00 Yards

Engage BCL “C” and use the integral Ballistic Cam to adjust elevation zero in 100 yard increments.

Use scope’s inte rnal (tu rret) ad justments to fine tune.

Beyond 10 0 0 Yar d s

Disengage BCL “C” and use LR Mount’s MVA “B” to acquire range. Fine tune using scope’s internal

adjustment.

There are other mounts that allow some initial vertical and horizontal position­ing, but none that offer the ability to maintain the center of optical axis on the fly and

over the degree of elevation required for shooting at ranges out to 3000 Meters, that
Base Mount fo r 12 x 3 6 does.
