I have a G2 set up in 445 SM carbine configuration. I need higher rings than are currently in the Leupold base. Which way am I supposed to turn them to remove them? I used a dowel and tried twisting in both directions with moderate pressure but they didn't budge. Don't want to mess up the rings by twisting the wrong way.
