Jas MadhavanRuger 416 and Trijicon
I have a Ruger in 416 Rigby and a Trijicon Accupoint 1.25-4x 24. Unfortunately the scope is not "long enough" for the rifle/base: with the rear ring as far back as it can go on the scope, the front ring (if on the scope) is a few inches short of the base. Does Ruger or anybody offer an offset base so that this scope can be mounted on this rifle? (without having to mill a block of cold steel!!)
Thanks

RIPRuger factory offset rings are made. Try Brownells or Ruger. Blue or stainless.

hunteratheartHave the same scope on my Browning Safari in .458 Win Mag. Using Leupold QD bases and rings that are offset.

CaretakerGot my Ruger offset front base from Midway. I believe it matches a medium rear.
