Hey fellas,
Upgraded the orignal scope today - Wife is excited.
Sadly I need another 1/2"-1" forward movement ( towards the muzzle ), But I am unable to do so as the rear ring is hitting the scope and I have no more forward play available on the stock bases.
I have seen the Burris XTR rings - One side is extended.

Does any one know if I can safely put the rear base in the front and the front base in the rear?
As I said I need to extend the rear base ( just aboe the bolt handle ) about 1/2" and that burris base would be perfect overhang..... Or too much?
Any one willing to try and post results or pictures before I spend money ( we Canadians have no midwayusa luxry )
Thanks!!
