That may be an option, but I was concerned that the pins would no longer lock snugly into the base and thereby effect the repeatability of the mounts. The other concern is that the bell of the objective lens barely clears the barrel. I would have to raise the rear and drop the front.

Shim bases on one and carefully recontour just one end of the rear (I think your trying to push, poi down) or get the gunsmith's Leo's and hand fit them.

Thanks Dale, I'll talk to a a more engineer-minded person then myself and see if he can machine something that may work.
