Ruger #1 416 Rem Mag Load Performance

Today went pretty well, every load was plenty accurate enough for this rifles purpose. Which my whitetail ranges are powder burn range to about 125 yards haha. Problem i ran into with these 300 grain loads, was my leupold scope ran out of adjustment. With the scope maxed out my loads are about 3" to 3 1/4" high at 100 yards. Which is still usable, but a bit higher than I prefer. So I'm gonna have to figure something out with this. I did not have this issue with the 400 gr factory loads, but the 300 gr handloads in the 2850 fps range were over a foot and a half higher than the factory 400's. Are the rings on the ruger #1 supposed to be the same height or is it like the m77 where the back ring is taller than the front? Cause my rear ring is taller than the front, and I'm not sure which is correct for the #1. Anyways here are the groups from today.
