ha yea so if it was tightened all the way it wont be strong on there?
it's to big?

like u said it probly wont be tight ,but u can use a simple sleeve or something to get it to grip ,without being ghetto like..

Mount — Clamps to rifle/carbine barrel or gas tubes from .5" to .9" in diameter
5/8 is in that range.
your problem is in the scope rings 1" =25.4. too small by a little for most scopes.

it looks like they have a stick on shim on the bottom of the ring to shim to 1"in the ebay pic.

maybe .

if not

If you had a ring to swap out probably would be best, easiest way to change ring size

lapping the ring w/ a sandpaper covered dowel or rod another way.

for what its worth
