Pop can aluminum shims, or I will lap the scope rings down with a 1" solid round stock with lapping compound. I will only go through the trouble of lapping if its for a precision rifle. Too many shims may put stress on the scope.
.030 inches is about 3/4 of a mm? That seems like a pretty thick shim.
For lapping does one use a wooden or a steel mandril? I've been wondering if I could just use a 1 inch wooden dowel and a piece of 800 grit emory paper. I've only got about .5 mm to take off.
