Only the Sauer 600 rings were used, not the bases. The correct 700 bases came with the rifle so I assume the .017 inch difference was made to compensate for muzzle rise during this rifle's heavy recoil. And yes, I didn't like the look either, and although not necessary, I used a shim to level the scope.
