	Mine in 38-55 is good for elevation to 100 yds. What then? What have y'all done?

	Had one years ago, and I inletted a piece of brass flat bar into the stock, behind the receiver. Epoxy bedded it in, and drilled and tapped for a Marlin spacing, as I had plenty of bases in that size. Put a midrange vernier on it, and it worked out pretty nicely for longer ranges.

Brass might add a nice touch....
