[QUOTE="ta406, post: 1087746, member: 34644"] So, I think I figured out the issue. I ran through all the suggestions that you guys gave me and came to the conclusion that when I place a .010 shim between the right side of the scope rings and the base (picatinny) that it brought everything into alignment. So I basically canted the scope rings into alignment with the bore. While I know this isn't a permanent fix, I at least I know where my problem lies. I don't have a mill, but I'm guessing the proper fix is to mill .010 off the opposite side of the rings. Is there any other solution providing the rings are not out of spec? Possibly weld up, redrill and tap the holes in the reciever by a gunsmith? [/QUOTE]
