[QUOTE="Coyboy, post: 344244, member: 3733"] Kevin and Chads solutions two the problem are good ones but FIRST you need to know the exact cause of the problem. It could very well be that the holes are drilled off center. You could have a reciever that when polished at the factory has the rear reciever ring cant to the right and rear.(very common on polished blue and polish SS recievers) (this problem cants the back ring to the right causing the scope to point left of center with windage zeroed.) Or your barrel shoulder to action joint is a little cocked out of square with the bolt race way.(barrel shoulder, recoil lug, reciever face, issue)( or barrel bore curve) Each of these problems has a multiple different solution so it is a must to find the problem before working on the thing. The very easiest solution may be Kevins suggestion, or Burris sig. zee rings with inserts set to remove the error. The best solution for long term would be Chads if in fact the holes are out of alignment. If the reciever tails off on the right rear reciever ring, and the holes are straight you can shim and epoxy bed the rail stress free to remove the error. If it's the joint or barrel bore curve, and you don't want to pull it apart to correct then go back to Kevins suggestion or the burris sig. zee rings with inserts. [/QUOTE]
