[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 1008757, member: 12443"] We put a 40 moa base on my sons 338x378 due to running out of travel at about 1200 with a 20 moa. Windage zero was an issue i encountered when setting the scope up. All the adjustment remaining was off to one side of zero. Trying a different scope showed the same issue but with the remaining windage on the opposite side. It didnt appear to me that Burris offered 30 mm rings but i could be wrong. I also wasent comfortable using them on that gun anyway. EURO OPTIC offers windage adjustable rings made by U S OPTICS. Very nice but also pricey. They solved the problem for us and also allowed for a 100 yd zero with the low ring. This is a Vortex 6x25 scope and its (reccomended) you use 15 in. # of torque on the ring screws. Problem is that wont hold the scope from moving and neither will 20# on those type guns. I set them at 25# and all seems well. Better scopes are better in lots of ways. [/QUOTE]
