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? |

Sounds like you need to put the base back where it was a get an front extension ring. Which one depends on the ring height and finish your using: |

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.
