I called bushnell and they said they would check it out but it takes months and I have to pay for the shipping. I already had to send the gun back to ruger and have it remachined, i have grown impatient and just want to shoot the damn thing. As far as the rings and mounting. I dont know, I have taken it off and put it back together twice. everything is level and fit. There isnt really any other way the ruger rings can go on. I do agree with U i dont really want to buy another scope and have the same issue.
