[QUOTE="Black Diamond 408, post: 123509, member: 1563"] I use IOR scopes, their rings will fit a standard Picatinny spec base, not weaver bases as they are different. Weaver bases use a smaller cross notch than a Picatinny rail base. Yes be very carful on the rings with IOR scopes, i had problems with my 6x24 scope. The front ring was just a bit too tight and the side focus got snug. I am concerned about the way you shimmed the base on the rifle, If you check the rings are prolly out of alinement now. You should look into a milled rail, that way the rings will be in line with each other. If the rings are not perfect the scope will be binded or pinched. You can check this with a straight edge laying it accross the inside of the rings. Dave [/QUOTE]
