Leupold base/scope shims height problem - 09/30/15
Have a problem. 1957 Savage 99F in the .308 Winchester. Leupold 99R one piece base with Leupold extended rings. Windage screws at rear of the base. Leupold VII 3X9X40.
Bore sighted L/R using windage screws, easy.
Tried to raise height a few inches, no dice. Scope is adjusted as high as it can go so the prior owner must have noticed this.
I need shims for the front of the base? For the rings? I simply don't have a clue if its possible and where can I buy them?
Thanks in advance for any help and or insight you may have.
