[QUOTE="bowhunthard88, post: 580723, member: 12575"] Now this is a cheap fix, and I personally have not had to use it, and I'm sure some guys will argue with me on this point... It worked great on my buddy's one gun and some "factory mounted" scopes come with this. Put a single wrap of masking tape around the scope, and tighten it down. Make sure the tape doesn't overlap (of course!). You can trim the tape beforehand so it doesn't stick out from underneath the rings. The pressure seems to force the adhesive thru the tape also (non-sticky side) so both sides are slightly sticky. It comes off relatively easy, with acetone (or GooGone, etc.). You could also put the tape inside the rings (that's the way most "factory" mounted scopes use). Your scope will NOT move! Other than that, buy a set of Murphy Precision rings and base... Good luck.
