All,
I’m in need of some help. I recently bought the subject-titled firearm, and while trying to mount scope/rings on the cantilever (Weaver-style) base, I’m having issues. I attempted to mount the scope I have using Warne Maxima QD (30mm) scope rings, and after tightening down the levers on the rings, the scope and rings move in the mount.
The movement is not the scope in the rings, nor is it the cantilever base on on the barrel. The movement is the rings moving in the mount. Thinking that the rings might be out of tolerance, and in the interest of time, I ordered another pair thinking I would just deal with Warne later on the first pair. Well, I received the new pair today, and I am having the same issue. I’m at a loss, and, yes, I did put forward pressure on the rings while tightening the levers on the rings.
I would greatly appreciate any of your thoughts on what is happening here. I’m not new to this, and I just thought it wise to consult the community.
Thank you,
P
