Hey all, So I just picked up a Ruger 10\22 in a ATI-AR 22 kit. I mounted a bushnell elite 3200 3-9x40 I had laying around just to try it out, dialed it in and ran out of adjustments on the scope. Its currently shooting about a inch and a half low at 50 yards. I know I could get lower rings but not sure if it would help enough. Do you guys have any scope recommendations for this style of rifle? Or a quick fix so I could use the bushnell?

Do you have a bull barrel or regular barrel? I found the weight of the bull barrel pulled down the entire receiver and barrel on my AR22 that my scope was also almost maxed out on the elevation (fortunately I'm not quite maxed but pretty close).

This thread also shows how the elevation was maxed out. Had to be solved with a barrel block.

If that doesn't work, you could try adjustable rings like the Burris Signature Zee with the ring inserts. They worked out great on my other rifle when I ran out of adjustments.
 
On my AR-22 my scope sit high like that because of my big fat head and I have had no issues but i'm not using a bull barrel either. I used a ruger 10/22 model # 1261 it looks sweet with that version. Shoots great too.
 
Lol SR barrel. That is your issue I bet. My 2 cents is buy a tactical solutions barrel.
16" but only 15oz. Youll gain accuracy and drop 1+lbs in weight.
The switch wouldnt cost you as much since people like the SR barrels for other builds.
