Thanks Guys! Yeah I always push my rings as far forward as possible.

At any rate, live and learn. Yes, I can full conclude the trophy is a for light recoiling gun. I m not sure how far I will get with it but I m hoping to maybe get Bushnell at the very least replace it.

I also talked to Vortex about their rings and really it came own to this. The bases and rings just didn't have the tolerances that say the warne system has.

Moving on I have gotten a Picatiny Rail from MGM and talked to Vortex and made sure my reflexive sight would work. They are sending me the correct one to just to make sure. Over all I think this will work out.

I m also going to run it over to my smith and have the 14" barrel chopped to 12" and re-crowned.
