I have the same problem with my scope setup on my 10/22. I have however been able to zero at 50yds. The problem I have is that I don't have that much more elevation left to adjust for longer distances. I have a 6-24x44AO with finger adjustable turrets that I would like to be able to use. My question is:

1. What material do you use for a shim?

2. Should the shim go under the entire base of the scope mount? or just under the front (if more elevation is required)

3. How thick should the shim be?

Thanks,
WinMag
