Any suggestions?? I was out in the shop mounting the Nikon Monarch I had bought for my Savage 114 American Classic 300wm and the mounted rings are too far apart to allow clearance between the power adjustment knob and the front bell of the scope I bought the Burris TU-2 piece Universal bases #410246 that the books said to buy for my gun but the rings are too far apart to allow clearance in between them for the Nikon Monarch scope. I called Burris but of course the tech guys were gone now until Monday morning. Any ideas? Anyone know what Burris bases I need for this gun since it is evident the 410246 are not going to work?

Sounds like you may need to look at reversing the rear base so the windage screws are closer to the action instead of the rear of the bolt!
I have had to do that a couple of times!
Try the Leupold! http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpage.exe/showproduct?saleitemid=855592&t=11082005

Which set of these do you have? The one on the right has a reversable front! Thats the one I would buy if you want to stick with the Burris!

I have the ones on the left. Did not even know that the 410246 bases came in the reversable as well. The reversable one may hang over the ejection port some.

If it hangs over the ejection port some it wont hurt a thing!
I had a set of Burris mounts like that on a Model 7 that hung over the ejection port and it never caused any problems at all.

That is good to hear. I really would like to stay with the Burris Signature rings because I like the inserts. Burris has an extention ring that allows for the same thing but I don't think they come in the Signatures. I will check out the reversible bases. Thanks y'all I really do appreciate the help.

yep you can have that overhang on the ejection port and it won't interfere.
