[QUOTE="Desert Fox, post: 135923, member: 396"] For long range shooting, shimming is not the answer. Get a one piece base with 20 MOA slope. Shimming can introduce stress in the scope if not done correctly. The key to proper scope mounting is to eliminate stress associated with misaligned mounting components. If you elected to stay with your current set up, then I recommend to replace your ring with Burris Signature with ***-allign offset insert. This is better than shimming the rear base. You have to buy the insert seperately though. [url="http://www.burrisoptics.com/sigrings.html"]http://www.burrisoptics.com/sigrings.html[/url] [/QUOTE]
