[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 908323, member: 1290"] With the Burris Signature rings I still get the right Leupold Weatherby specific double dovetail bases so you get the full benefit of the offset rings. Murphy makes rails with the correct elevation offsets for the Mark 5. What they had was close but not good enough. I took a couple Mark 5 actions and measured them out using my mill and supplied those numbers and had them build me a handful of rails. They set dead perfect. I would assume they adopted my corrected numbers and they should still sit perfect without the need for bedding them. We torque them on with 6-48 screws to 16 inch pounds with blue Loctite. They hold on our 300 Wby's just fine holding 8.5-25x50 Leupold scopes. I second Near as the finest out of the box solution for the Mark 5 action. In fact everything Near makes is first rate. [/QUOTE]
