Do what Verminator2 says. Pop can shims are an easy fix and work fine. I had the same problem with a 22-250AI I had built. I couldn't find a Leupold 20MOA base locally and was leaving on a shoot in Idaho so I cut up some pop cans and shimmed the rear base and it worked great. I think I used three layers of aluminum. I found some 20MOA bases on that trip but didn't change out the shims for over a year. Hey, it worked so why mess with it. Eventually I started shooting more at 500 to 600 yards and I made the change.
