Hi All,
For some reason I thought the VX6 3-18 would have a longer body. The gun is a Sako TRG-S 30-06.
I would like to get a second opinion before I hammer in the stop pin on the rear base and lose my ability to return them ($140).
I'm wondering if I would be better off returning this set and ordering the style with separate rings/bases.
The only way I can get it to fit properly is to make the adjustments that I wrote on the photo below. The instructions that came with the rings said to mount the front ring in the center (similar to the photo)...because mounting forward / rear of center will adjust the elevation (point of impact).
My other questions is if I make the changes, will they be as secure since they will not be mounted where they are supposed to be?
So, what do you guys think?
Thanks,
Dave
