Now you are going to say that these are too much money but here they are....   http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jhtml;jsessionid=U3R0BAJRFOJC1TQSNOISCNOOCJVZIIWE?id=0024322226410a&navCount=0&cmCat=srchdx&cm_ven=srchdx&cm_ite=srchdx&_requestid=45978  

I was having the same problem with the same gun and these fixed it. Scope will not move. Also you can adjust for barrel droop. Also if you look around you can find them cheaper.
Go out and get yourself a Concealed Weapons License. I did. :wink: :gun4:

Easy fix here.  You need a scope stop.  The lowest priced ones I have found are the Tech Force Universal Recoil Stop Block By B-Square.  This is about the only thing that B-Square makes that works in my opinion.  Go to http://www.compasseco.com/shop/products.html?maingroup=Scope%20Mounts&secondgroup=B%20Square and scroll down to where is says "item #TFMTRSB Tech Force Universal Recoil Stop Block By B-Square - $12.95.  Sliding scopes is an old problem with springer rifles.  Lawdog
