Rifle Scopes sloped base for Ruger M77

Re: sloped base for Ruger M77

This Ken Farrell base was originally for a Remington long action. I milled it down to the proper offset, drilled and tapped the receiver for #8-40 screws. I ended up with an 18 moa offset. My goal was 20 but not being a machinist by trade I can live with the results. Besides, it is more than enough to get my 25-06 Ackley to any distance I intend to hunt. Wanting to mount one of my S&Bs on this rifle inspired me to do this.
Needless to say I'm very pleased with the outcome. Rifle is a 77VT rebarreled with a Rock Creek 5R.
