Telescope mounting problem: Running out of adjustment

[Africadee]

I recently replaced my 1.25 - 6 x 42 Zeiss scope with a 3-12 x 50 Zeiss using the same Weaver mounts and rings that previously worked, on my CZ 550 Mag 416 Rigby as I do not only use the rifle for close-up work....

On attempting to Zero the rifle I ran out of elevation adjustment ( Up) before I could get it to Zero at a 100m.

I then replaced the mountings and rings on advice of and fitment by (at cost $$$) a G/S with a set of Lynx mounts. The elevation adjustment (UP), at full stop, is lacking in height even more than the previous set-up?

What do I do?

Machine the Lynx ring stems and the screw channels at an angle and if so, how do I calculate the angle? The rifle currently shoots approximately 12cm low at 25M....

Not too keen to spend more on rings...

have you tried turning the mount front to back?

Aaahhh, Rupert and I had a nice conversation based on his experience and hopefully this is the solution...As I am adjusting to point of aim (the Bull)- i.e up, I should be adjusting to point of impact which is down!!

Let us see?
