You need an under-mount scope kit.

The solution is obvious here. Longer action screws and a counterweight on the bottom of the stock to eve things out. 😜

Hollow out the stock, fill the stock with IPA, add a tap under the sling swivel stud, use like a camelback while stalking.

Starsky, Your dilemma is a common one and can be easily solved.... You need to get one of them super duper UBER cool slings, they will act as a counter weight and with enough practice you could actually use it to carry your rifle after years of practice of course. I myself have not mastered this skill to carry my rifle so I usually ask someone to carry my rifle on my hunts.

I would possibly consider having the shank lengthened to even out the balance.

So that's why they call it the Kimber roulette! They spin around when you lay them down.

I put this SHV on a Kimber Adirondack and now I can't get the rifle to stay upright! It appears you guys that were saying this is a bad idea (light rifle + heavy scope) were right! Any advice on how I can fix this?? Duct tape.
My home is the "sanctuary residence" for my firearms.

That's what you get for going blind mag. You need a lotta rounds detachable mag. Even better if you get one of those multiple mag clamp things so you can load it for "perfect" balance.
