Go to adjustable rings, and/or adjustable base, then shim if you want 0/0.

The caps have set screws that will allow the caps to be turned so that you view the "0" settings from the rear.

~~~~~~~~~~

The rifle is not sighted-in yet, you will again not have 0/0 after sighting.

+10 on the top and bottom of the rear and -10 on the top and bottom of the front


You would do better with +10 on the bottom & -10 on top on the rear.

-10 bottom & +10 on top on the front.


The inserts are designed that a + & - are required on each ring.

^This.

You want to put the +10 on the bottom of the rear ring, and the top of the front ring. Then the -10 on the top of the rear, and bottom of the front.

Then try again.

That I didn't know, im going to try this out this weekend at a shooting range.

Thanks

Let us know how it works for you. It is the setup I use with + & - 20 inserts to shoot .22 rimfire at 200m.

I am going to hazard a guess that your front ring is loose and the rear one is super tight.

The eccentric inserts should go as follows:
+10 on bottom rear and top front.
-10 on top rear and bottom front

That way the scope is canted up at the back and down at the front

THIS WAS MY FIRST SETUP

WHAT YOU GUYS ARE SUGGESTING IS THIS CORRECT?

My original fired set-up was 0's all around.
My new set-up which I showed you was what I found to give me the closest 0 using the Bushnell bore sighter.

And last thing.

Where did you get the 20 inserts? my package only came with
4 x 0
2 x -10
2 x +10

 

[Jordan Smith]

Yes, that is correct.


The Burris insert kit comes with one of each thickness, including the 20's.

I don't think the assortment should come with the 0, these are included with the initial purchase with the rings. I'm wondering if someone tampered with the assortment you received ???

The 20 inserts should have been in the assortment. Mine came with 2 X 5, 2 X 10 & 2 X 20.

I purchased another set of 20s separately.

 

[gwilder]

30mm rings come with a full set of zeros and a full set of 10s. 1" rings just come with the zeros.

 

[Suputin]

^^^^^ this, plus an accessory pack of 10's and 20's is available for the 1" rings but not for the 30mm rings.
