Thanks to all the interest in trying to solve my problem. As stated I will start over and measure the rings to see if they happen to be different in height, but I dough it. I’m usually very careful and take my time when installing a scope, but maybe I did something wrong.


The scope is a 6-20 x 40mm Weaver Grand Slam with a 1” tube that was mounted on my No 1 Ruger. This scope gave me no trouble. I can mount another scope with higher mounts to see if anything changes. If I have time tonight I’ll start over and see what happens. Thanks again .....
