Default Scope mount recommendation needed

I have a Sako Finnlight in .270 win and a Leupold VX-3 2.5-8x36mm. Any idea what mount will mount the scope lowest but still sturdy? Where to buy in or near Calgary and at what price point? Anybody has experience with this or similar setup?

I have tried the Optilock base and extra-low rings but the clearance is still too high. The one-piece Optilock low ringmounts are better but can still use a little less clearance.

Thanks in advance.

Not available for the Finnlight. I went with the Burris bases that slide over the dovetail, and Leupold rings on my new Sako 85. This system is very strong, reasonably priced, and you can mount the scope low.
