Use a ruler and measure from center bolt line to center scope line.

(1/2)barrel diameter + (1/2)scope objective diameter + top of barrel to top of rail + rail to objective

Repeat it a few times using calipers and you are good to go.

Bingo! No math needed. Measure from center of windage knob to center of bore. Simple. Takes all of 5 seconds.
