I picked it up today and mounted a new Instinct/Meopta 4.5-14 I had sitting here in Talley low rings. I can see daylight, but can’t get a .001 feeler gauge between the scope and barrel. Oh well, going to have to order the high ring set. Looks like they are .25 higher. I have a friend who is a low mounted scope freak. I learned from his experience that the barrel will expand enough in the sun to shift the impact if you don’t have about 10 thousandths clear air between the scope and barrel on rimfire rifles. It’s a shame a buddy had these sitting unused.
