I'm trying to install a scope on my .338 Win Mag Rem 700 XCR. I've had the gun for about 10 years, but someone else installed the first scope. I'm using Talley Lightweights, lapped. I mounted the bases but found that they're not square. When the flat portion of one base shows it's level, a level placed on the other mount shows it's not. (See photo.) I've swapped levels and bases (the photo shows Leupold dovetail mounts), and the result is the same. Should I contact Remington? Try to level scope relative to something else on gun? Thanks.
