WHEN MOUNTING SCOPES WITH AN OBJECTIVE < 50MM, THE LOW RINGS MADE BY BURRIS / LEUPOLD / REDFIELD ARE THE CORRECT CHOICE.
THE SCOPE SHOULD ALWAYS BE MOUNTED AS CLOSE TO THE RECEIVER & BARREL, WITHOUT TOUCHING EITHER, AND WITH MINIMAL CLEARANCE AT THE EYEPIECE FROM THE BOLT HANDLE. RINGS & BASES SHOULD ALWAYS BE MADE OF STEEL & ALIGNED & LAPPED WITH A SINCLAIR STEEL LAPPING ROD.

GURU'S SHOP RULE FOR TELESCOPIC SIGHTS: "THE PRICE OF THE OPTICAL SYSTEM (base, rings, & scope) SHOULD EQUAL OR EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE RIFLE"

LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING THE PHOTOS & GLAD I COULD HELP YOU.
