Need Some Help - Scope Mounting on a 375 Login/Join

I'm trying to mount a Trijicon 1.25-4X24 Accupoint Scope on my Browning A-Bolt 375. I've got a set of Leupold bases & rings along with Talley QD bases & rings, and they don't fit!
The action is so long that the scope is just a hair away from fitting, but if I did get it to fit I would not be able to turn the power.
Question is there another set of quality QD rings & bases that I'm not thinking about that can offset the long action of my gun & the short size of the scope?

Check and see if anyone makes an extended base for your particular rifle. Also, a 1 piece base might help you. I ran into the same problem with one of my CZ's.


Good hunting,

I'd go with the extended base. I do not like one-piece bases mounted over the ejection port.

I found a pair of Leupold offset mounts this morning at a local gun shop that got me all fixed up. I guess I'll send the Talleys back.

Thanks for the help.
