    Looking for a new base

    Wondering if anyone here has insight on a front scope base for a Sako L579 action?

    I am in need of a base that will allow me to move the scope rearward so my wife can get a full sight picture with her rifle. Stopped at Scheels at noon and the only option they had was a cheap plastic Weaver extension ring.

    Though I may eventually have to switch rings and mounts altogether to find something that works, I like the Warne rings that are on it now so would prefer to just find a base that is a touch longer.

    Any thoughts?

    How about snapping a pic of the scoped action?

    Would a Warne 905 work?

    I had similar problem. Warne 905 extended bases fixed it.
