Here are photo's of how i modified the windage set screws from slot to allen head. now i no longer need to raise the scope tubue to the top of the scope mont to loosen or tighten the set screws.
this first photo shows the allen head screws that i purchased from home depot. i shortened the screws to 10mm length as well as the allen wrench

in this photo you can see why i shortened the 4mm allen wrench. notice that i can now loosen or tighten the allen head set screws with the scope almost and the bottom of th scope mount.

this photo shows the height adjustment marks on the mount and scope tube ring adjusted for 100 yds.

now windage adjustments are easy to do and so is bore sighting. hope this info has helped.
