    My daughter need to move the scope back on her Howa 1500 for the eye relief. I also found when hunting in my turkey chair I can't get a good mount without rocking forward and looking for a different mount for mine after the season.

    I am looking for suggestions on different mounts to make the scope rings more adjustable. The two rings on each side of the bolt don't allow enough movement.

    +1 on the offset rings. Depending on the scope and the platform, they can move the scope forward or backward. On one install, I even had both on the front part of the scope tube due to the limited amount of rail on that rifle.

    I use Warne rings and love them. Once set, they never move.
