[QUOTE="Chris F, post: 2970041, member: 1181"] it looks like you found a good solution. I'll throw out my 2 cents anyway from the Service Rifle competition experience. We pretty much all need cantilevered mounts because of our head positions. Many of the standards like Geiselle and Nightforce put the scope centerline at around 1.3" above the top of the pic rail. But there are others at different heights. I just got done measuring a few. The PRI 1" was 1.25. The Creedmoor 30mm was 1.5" and I've got a couple of DNZ's to measure still. Separate extended rail and rings sound like a nice solution but as the OP found, screw's work loose. Service Rifle shooters have mostly decided that more screws in your mount = more opportunity for one to work loose at the wrong moment. [/QUOTE]
