I have a 116 25-06 and a Leupold VXII 4-12x40 that I am trying to mount on it. The scope is too short and I can't get the correct eye relief with it. I had it mounted with Weaver 402M extended mounts and Med Burris Zee rings, but that wasn't far enough back. I just bought an EGW one piece and thought I had it whipped. Even with the EGW I can't move my scope back far enough as the scope bell hits the EGW. I think it would work with high rings, but I am worried it will be too high. Any ideas on any other bases I could try to get this scope to work? Thanks for any help.
