Another really basic question : I purchased the Leupold Dual Dovetail scope rings and mounts for my Rem 700VS. The front base is reversable. The rear mount seems to overhang either the breech opening where you load the ammo or the rear of the action where the bolt comes out (sorry for using all these highly technical terms! ). Anyway, which way is it supposed to go? I understand that once the rear mount is on, then I use the front base one way or the other depending on how the scope will best fit in the rings. Right? Sorry to ask such a basic question but I couldn't find a picture of these mounts and rings on a rifle anywhere
