Pretty much set with Buehler. And there in route to me. I have Buehler bases and HAD Buehler rings until I snapped a top screw on the rear ring when tightening the wind age screws. I have had Buehler on this rifle for many years. They were there when I got it, and have performed great. Recently I purchased a new scope and went to change it out, and that is when I snapped the screw. I have never seen or heard of the the procedure to adjust Buehler rings to the different scopes diameters. I know there are shims but I was hoping for some help or detailed info.

lets say the scope OD Measures 1.010" and the rings ID measure 1.000", I would guess that a shim of .008" would be needed to allow for a .002" compression when tightened down. Or am I back wards on this? Or should it be around .005"?
