I purchased a savage 12 target 6.5 Creedmoor rifle and a Nightforce PB 12x42x56. This is my first target / competition rifle. I am trying to get the rifle setup for barrel breakin. I have an EGW Savage HD 20 moa mount and Nightforce 30mm steel rings 1.375. I have about 1/4" clearance between the barrel and the widest part of the scope. The problem is when trying to bore site at about 25 yds before taking it to the range I am about a foot high with the scope cranked all the down. I have a set of weaver mounts that I tried with the same results. My thought was that I have the wrong height rings. I bought the scope,mounts, and rings from a popular online company giving them the rifle model. Additionally eye relief is suppose to be 3-4". I wear glasses and for me to get the complete sight picture I need to get 2" away (front of glasses to front of scope). I would appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Jeff
