I put the bolt face down and see if the weight of the carrier will slide the carrier down. If so, it gets new rings. I give the old rings to my brother in law, he will keep running them for months! It might be over cautious, but I never have experianced a short stroke or any other gas related issue. I am not a high round count guy, but I like having good days out with my son... not days getting mad that my rifle keeps screwing up!
Basically, exactly what you have pictured, but flip it upside-down. YMMV.
