Dovetail rings

Well no one makes a 20 moa ring that I can find. I think I am just going to get some dovetail rings and send it. With a nf cc I think I can get to 1000 with a 284 win. What do y’all think?
Just looked on the NF website and the Competition is listed at 55MOA total vertical travel. I think you are going to struggle to get there without any taper to the scope and even if you do, you would be at the extreme of travel which is not recommended.
 
This rail adapter lets you mount Picatinny/Weaver rings to a dovetail with minimal increase in height (<1/4"); the inserts in Burris Signature ringsgive you up to 20 MOA on 1" rings and 40 MOA on 30 or 34 mm rings. This is a solution I've used on my Anschutz smallbore free rifle.
Those are the exact same bases I use on an airgun with 11mm dovetail and Signature rings. I'm pretty certain they would not work on the Kelbly rail which is different.

A Kelbly is probably a 3/8" rail (I don't own one so I can't measure it). Those adapters are somewhat flexible; I had to spread the opening to fit my Anschutz 1413 (early '67 date of manufacture) which is nominally 11 mm. They'll probably close down to fit 3/8" rails. The rail on my Annie has a round top, and this is the only adapter I found that clears it, locating only on the groove; most adapters presume the rail or base top is flat and sit on the top face (a recipe for disaster in this application).
