What are the benefits of the Ruger BX Trigger upgrade for a Ruger 10/22?

How do you address potential scope ring height issues on a rimfire rifle?

When using high scope rings, you might run out of vertical adjustment. A practical workaround is to zero the scope at a lower reticle hash mark instead of the center crosshair, maximizing your adjustment range.
