I have a 1.350 diameter round action (10x 22lr) that I would like to mount a one piece pic rail on. I would like to set my scope farther back and higher than I'm able with the traditional dovetail setup. I have a manual mill and did achieve this thru trial and error (4 hours). I used a small fly cutter and tilted the head at 50 deg in the x axis. Initially I set the fly cutter to cut a 1.350 diameter circle but that did not cut the proper concave for the action. Kept making the flycutter smaller and smaller untill there was a good fit to the action. But is there a formula for this,, or easier way. Have looked but failed to find. Dro installed has no program for this so its basically a 3 axis counter. Thanks,
