US Patent 10436537 Integrated rifle and spotting scope mount

The integrated rifle and spotting scope mount is a frame for mounting on a support, the frame providing a rifle mount, a spotting scope mount. The rifle mount adjustably held in fixed relation, spaced from the spotting scope mount allowing synchronized movement of the rifle and spotting scope along a generally vertical plane and generally horizontal plane. The support may be a tripod having a spring loaded apex mechanism removably attaching a leveling ball mount to the tripod. The shot line of the rifle, the aim line of the rifle scope and the sight line of the spotting scope move together to track a moving target. An eye relief adjustment on the spotting scope adjusts the position of a spotting scope eye piece relative to the rifle scope.
