Also be aware of the fit of the scope in the front ring ,most of the after market scope mounts including the ones made by RSM are way out of specification and when the rings are fitted they will bind in the scopes area to receive the rings .If it dose you have to shave the face and the rear of the rings to insure there is no binding .I had a original No 32 MkI scope the would not a line the post and cross wire unless the after market mount was reworked as stated above . Never remove metal from the scope . Remove metal from the mount it is the lest expansive item and if you make mistake it is ease to replace.
Thanks for the information here. So did you have a similar issue with the cant of your scope? I can hold the scope so that the turrets look level and clearly see the reticle is not rotated to align with them. I have no idea who made the repro mount I have as it came with my No 4 T rifle, but can you tell me what is considered the best repro one to use?
