I shall do this, Parabola-- I recall in my 80 year old brain a way to "re-adjust the elevation' and you explained that in easy terms for me to grasp. Do you mean a single shim, as I read Eightbore's sage reply, and at the bottom of the rear ring?-- that seems to make sense to me. What do you recommend I use for shim stock? My first thought might be a feeler gauge, marked in thousands of an inch, and flexible (assuming .010" as a "starting point"--but I can also gauge fine emery paper, and waterproof it, cut to bend to the OD of the scope tube..

I've probably said it before, but IMO it bears repeating: what a wealth of gun knowledge and willingness to share that info exists amongst the membership of this Forum.. RWTF
