    Rifle Scopes Ring heights question - gun not available for calculation of height

    I went with medium height rings originally on my Savage mod 10FP. I'm not sure if the low rings will work with the large objective. I was in your position, and did not want to wait, so opted for the medium rings, just in case the low rings did not offer enough clearance.

    Gunsmithing Feeding Issues

    Re: Feeding Issues Thanks DaveD. I have tried that already and have smoothed out the inside edges of the feed lips. I guess I'm still wondering, how do I know if I have to open up or close the feed lips? What condition indicates widening vs. narrowing? My first instinct is to open up the...
