I will look into these!

I bought Leupold base and rings, thinking they would be the best I could get. Do these Burris inserts fit inside the rings?

I guess I would have to raise the front if it is shooting low?
That sounds wrong. The rule is to move your rear sight the direction you want your impact to move.

If you raise the front you increase the angle between line of sight and bore axis, so the impact should be lower still.

The inserts only fit Burris Signature rings. If you tinker much, you'll find a use for the Leupold rings.

Or you could ask them to redo it and take your boresighter with you. I keep two small levels to confirm level, one on the rifle, one on the scope turrent.

Good luck,

I used them on one of my silhouette rifles to address the problem of not being able to zero the scope. They worked great and I was able to put the dot the center of the travel (both vertically and horizontally) and have the 10 MOA bump that is needed to adjust the scope for the different distances. Hope this after trying them on that rifle, I have converted most of my rifles to those rings.
This! Burris Signature rings. Inserts bought separately up to .020". Maximum correction using .020" front and rear is .040". This set rotates from -.020" to +.020" for interim adjustments.

Burris can probably advise which inserts for your issue.
