    I’m trying to set up a modern telescopic sight on an old mk2 bsa meteor. So far so good however I’m having the following issues :-
    The sight tends to creep back on its rail (dove tail to picatenny)
    The sight is on its maximum elevation but still shooting low what is a good shimming medium ?

    Ive just got back into this hobby so trying keep costs down untill I decide to stay with it.

    Old photographic film works well for shimming.
