Hello,
Hoping someone might help. When I sent to mount my Vortex scope to the factory installed bases on my new patriot rifle, they were extremely off. It appears that the bases are different sizes, but I am not sure if this was by design. There is no way to to get the scope to sign in, as it is more then 10" off from being able to zero the scope. Am I missing something, I ordered the rings from Optics planet, they are both the same size, should the rings have been different, such that there is a back and front? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated, Mossberg says the bases should be the same size!! and to send them a picture...
