Fixing the Tikka T1X with my 3D printer

My scope has a total of 18 mrad of adjustment, and as it's set now that is +7 -11. Shooting 200y is 8.3, so I had to use the holdovers on my reticle. Im shooting an event in july that goes out to 300 y, so I want to be prepared better.
~8 mrad is about .5 deg, which is exactly 30 moa. That should shift me to +15 -3 of adjustment range.
I though about shimming the back ring by 0.03" and then lapping the front one to match the angle, but I may as well just do this right from the get go.
I will not spend $100+ on a 4" section of aluminum, so naturally I'll spend 20 mins drawing it, 45 minutes programming it, and an hour or two making it at work. Logical!
Will have to find what screws to use too. I believe theyre 6-48 right now.
