[QUOTE="Welderboy250, post: 812122, member: 67711"] Thanks for the replies and and working with me on this. I don't have a hard number on what he be willing to spend only that the more it is the harder it will be to talk him into. But enough of that. The rings are the correct set with the tall one in the back and they are seating properly into the base. I have eliminated the issue being with the rings themselves or with a seating issue as I have laid two straight edges on top of the receiver, one on the front base portion and one on the rear. At this point they should be parallel but they are not. The font straight edge appears rathe parallel to the bore but the rear straight edge looks to be sloping up as u go forward (high in the front). Part of what I'm getting at here with all my questions is how do I get the scope to be fairly parallel to the bore when I'm done and not wind up with it looking up at the sky like I suspect it would if I just start cutting on the rings without considering the consequences. Thanks for all your help. Please let me know if u have any suggestions on keeping aligned with the bore. [/QUOTE]
