    8-40...
    One issue I ran into, I ordered a 40 MOA base to help with shooting out past 1000. With that much tilt, (even with the lowest rings I could run and keep the scope off the barrel), the rear of the scope is raised enough, I can't get a cheek weld I like with the factory stock. I may look into stock packs, or some other method to raise the cheek weld.

    What scope do you have that you need a 40 MOA rail @1000 yards? There are rings with inserts that would have helped you better than a 40 MOA rail. My Burris XTR II 4-20x50 has 90 MOA of adjustment. Also have Burris XTR signature rings that have the inserts to go up to 40 MOA. Not cheap but don't have the rear of my scope high.

    Past a 1000...This one will be shot out to, and past a mile.

    It is an SWFA SS 5-20x50, I still get a 100 yard zero, and most all of the vertical travel for dialing for ELR shots. I am new at this end of the dial, so we will see how my thought process plays out. It shoots great from a 100 to 600 yards so far. When we get some time we will head to the local 1500 yard range, then the spot we picked out for a full mile.

    Zero it out further and use a 20 MOA base?

    Red face Savage 112 scope Mount and Screws

    Greetings,
    I build these out, you need to order #8-40 screws from EGW. Here are the two mounts available and have slight differences which will be obvious. If there are any questions about reloading or any other subject about this specific rifle please feel free to contact me. If you reload, it is really quite cheap to shoot because for obvious reasons you don't shoot it a lot.
    Best Wishes

    LOL! Who are you trying to speak to “George”? This is quite an old thread & these aren’t even active members, save for one with a post in the last couple months.

    I recommend doing some reading here. Familiarize yourself with active members & topics. Maybe start in the Introduce Yourself forum and tell us a little background. And better yet.. Show us some things you do. We love pictures here, along with stories. Just some thoughts. Welcome to the Forum btw.
