Try burris signature rings with the appropriate inserts in to bring the rear of the scope down (I think :))

As Bob Hagel would say"You should not use a rifle that will kill an animal when everything goes right; you should use one that will do the job when everything goes wrong."Good words of wisdom...............

shooting high at what range ?

Study up on the concept of Burris Signature rings......

A 300 Win should not be much fun to sight in.......

load some Trailboss loads to get it on paper.....

There are two Savage 110 actions, one with a FLAT on the rear of the action and the other with a ROUNDED rear of the action, be sure you have the correct bases for the action you have.


After the first shot the rest are just noise.

Flat rear are the older pre Accue trigger actions.......

Round rear (RR) are current Salvage actions

I have a Savage 110 243 on a long action. Back when the rifle was purchased there were no short actions. I had the same problem and used Burris Signature Zee rings with the +20 insert in the front ring an the -10 in the rear. To explain the inserts, I used the +/-20 insert with the + on the bottom of the front ring and the +/-10 with the -10 on the bottom in the rear ring. This angles the front of the scope up so the point of impact will be lower. With the reticle centered before mounting I had the elevation almost dead on at 100 yards.
