    Posted: May/03/2009 at 20:07
I have a Savage 110 LH 270 for which I recently purchased a Team Primos 3x9x40 scope from SWFA.  I finally mounted it on my Leupold one piece base and rings.  I believe this is the same base... http://www.midwayusa.com/viewproduct/?productnumber=829187&utm_source=froogle&utm_medium=free&utm_campaign=657

I found that the scope would not mount far enough back for my needs so I moved the base back a notch so that of the front two screw mounts only one is usable.  The scope is now right where I need it but I am concerned if the base is secured enough. 

If not any suggestions on which base/rings I should switch too?

Thanks I will give them a try. I didn't know they made extension rings like that I figured that I would probably have to buy a new base and rings.
