I got a Leupold Rifleman scope mounting system... now I'm no genius when it comes to mounting scopes. One of the scope bases is thicker than the other, which you can see here (front piece noticeably thicker):
This causes the scope to angle, obviously. Is this normal? It came with 2 different sets of screws. Should the thick piece be in the back and cause the scope to angle downwards intead of forwards?
Also, there is a gap between the top piece and bottom piece as shown here:
Is this normal as well, as long as the gap is relatively even on both sides? Thanks for putting up with my silly questions.
