[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 715914, member: 48043"] I'd float the barrel and go from there. It's a no-harm no foul thing with a browning. My browning 300 win abolt boss stainless lh is floated from the factory, and I lock the boss at ten turns out with loc-tite. I also loc-tite the action screws as they will loosen on you when you are betting your Dad on a 1/2" or less group if you don't. You don't have a loose enough to be a problem but not loose enough to feel windage screw do you?? The leopold bases/rings will do this sometimes if you don't dang near glue them together with loc-tite. I prefer weaver myself but use leopold on some pipes. My browning has weaver bases and burris rings holding on to a 6-24x b&L elite 4000. [/QUOTE]
