Semi custom rib comin up LOL

EGW base overhangs receiver, so can get rear ring farther back than on Ruger quarter rib w ext ring.
I didn't need that much so removed 2 slots on the rear.

Had 3 tabs of pic rail removed at front, and beveled the leading edge of base. Still not enough clearance using Burris low Zee rings.
I chose low to replicate the factory set up w Ruger mediums.
The EGW is taller, so Burris Zee lows are close.

LOVE using the Zee rings over the %$#@ Ruger rings (over center tops are crap).
Will have more machined tonight and hopefully all assembled tomorrow.

At least the Ruger B scope issue will be resolved.
I need this scope moved back about .5"

The modified section just taken to one flat, about .050 lower. Can hand bevel the front later if need be.

The joy of using the Burris Zee rings vs the Ruger factory rings, cannot be overstated.
