Try a Weigand weaver style scope rail. Easy no drill installation. ;)

I have the Weigand mount also.
The set screw in the front keeps the elevation set.  Just don't torque it down.  Tighten only until it touches the frame.

I wish they give a nylon screw for this, the metal screw does mark up the frame. 

The mount is weak, i dont' think it was designed for anything with more kick that the 22 mag. 

I am sending my gun to Ruger to rebarrel with the 7.5" hunter barrel with integral scope mounts.  This way i have regular sights for back up.
