[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 1572308, member: 26077"] Get a different set of rings. Scope should not move in a properly mounted set of lapped rings no matter how much recoil a gun has. Bedding the rail or bases to the receiver makes sense to me. I disagree with the idea of epoxy bedding a set of rings. If a ring is properly made and properly fitted epoxy will not improve the scope to ring fit. Make sure you use an alignment tool to ensure the rings are perfectly in line and no bending action is imparted on the scope tube then lapp the rings for a perfect fit to the scope. I have had great results using Leupold and other rings lapped in place but if you want the ultimate in precision made try buying better quality rings like Near.
