BCB,
Since you have it in the Burris Siganture rings why not just buy the Burris off-set inserts? I'll bet that using them you can end up with the crosshairs close enough to center that they won't be bothersome.
My tale of woe - I had a Model 70 pre-64 Featherweight in 264 mag and like yours it could have passed for new if I would have had the hang tags and box, anyway after shooting it a bit I decided it was too much "boom and bellow" for me with the short 22 inch barrel. Mine actually grouped very well and I don't remember it kicking too badly but then I was a lot younger at that time.
Congrats on a neat find.
