I figured you wouldn't have anything helpful to add. Captain obvious regularly misses the obvious. Yeah I could slam the front bell down on the barrel. Then I'd need to remove the rear sight and I couldn't get a cleaning rag between the barrel and bell. Not what I'm looking for. In my early days I hunted see throughs on my '06 and I never ran out of elevation so I don't see that should be a problem. It don't have to be that high to clean it. I suggest getting a set of the Burris signature Zee rings with a shim kit.They use plastic bushings inside the rings to get the elevation you need.

I shimmed it with soda can. We'll see this weekend.
When I shot it last time I also mounted my M8 4x in low rings and had absolutely no trouble sighting that in. So if I have any further issues I may just go that route.

That could be determined by the little pointy-rod things.
I do agree on shimming the one piece is less likely to cause issues, but if you can verify the alignment of a two-piece, I'd shim it. One of our .com friends suggested to do the pointed rods correctly one should use the flat ends together. It makes very good sense if you give it much thought.

I have a couple sets of NOS one piece bases for Husqvarna, PM me if you want a set.
***Edit***
I was mis-remembering the Warne bases, he had Nula 28 bases stashed away.

Take the fricken rear sight off and trade your scope for one with a 40MM Bell.
Its all right to be white!!

Small ring mauser bases should fit that husqvarna just fine...I prefer Talley ultralights.

That depends. If the reason he's running out of adjustment is improper receiver dimensions, then shimming the correct end of the two piece should be bringing things into alignment, not out. The reason I won't shim two piece bases is it stresses the scope tube. Shimming a one piece base does not.
Don't roll those bloodshot eyes at me.

I figured you wouldn't have anything helpful to add. He actually did though bud. You're mounts are way high. Get them down so the objective is nearly touching the barrel. If you're set on that set-up, are your bases tight? Rings tight? Are you 100% sure there is nothing wrong with the scope?

It fits my eye when I through it up to my shoulder. Coincidentally it allows me to carry it in the manner displayed in the photo. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/ff364/RichCoyle/033_zps67c1c9da.jpg)

I grew up with Ironsighter see through mounts and I made a reputation for myself as a fine shot. As a teen I was outshooting all my friends and many of my peers with a Remington 760 and see through mounts. Maybe that's why a higher scope feels right to me or maybe they just always did.

mebbe you should harken back to the days of yore and slap some see-thrus on 'er. And regain that long-lost rep as a damn fine shot. Chin welds rock!
