Experts-
I have a 700 in 308 with a 10x SS on a one piece standard Leupold base and medium rings. I just ordered a Leupold Mark 4 6.5 - 20x50mm LR/T M1 (hello ramen noodles!) to replace the SS and have 2 questions.
1. Will it fit in the same rings and base? Or will it be too large and hit the barrel?
2. The base has no MOA which was fine with the SS's 120 MOA adjustment. I had no issues at 1000 yards and beyond. The Leupold has 70 MOA of adjustment. Will I need to shim or replace it or is 70 enough?
Thanks all!
