I am mounting a scope on a sporter Mauser. The base that seems to work best is a Leupold Standard one piece base with Standard rings.
Problem is, nothing fits perfectly on a Mauser Sporter because there is no standard Mauser Sporter.
The stripper clip boss has been removed so that area is flat. The one piece base needs to be elevated in the front by 20 MOA. I have it shimmed, but I don't want to leave it that way.
Is there a way to bed the scope base to fit with the needed 20 MOA elevation in the front?
Can I use bedding epoxy under the base in the front to do that? Will it be strong enough?
Thanks in advance for bestowing knowledge on me..
