Hey Guys- Picked up a RRA varmint 24 inch upper and attached my 6x24 sightron with the standard leupold "high" mounts and the darn thing is still too low for a comfortable sight picturehare very expensivehinking.gif Does anyone know where and what rings would work fine without costing an arm and a leg ?? Thanks- John from PA |

+1 on the riser/extender. but warne is one of the best values out there. do you have a 1" or 30mm tube? also knowing the height of your current rings will help figuring out which ones will be high enough. irons are 1.3" above the rail on a flattop. you need to know how much above that you need with your cheekweld. then its just math. |

I have used Warne ultra high and they provide enough clearance over a Troy BUIS and good cheek weld. They are only about $70 and great rings. I used the QD model and unfortunately they are back ordered everywhere. I went this route to eliminate an additional mount that might come loose, but this was probably over thinking it, and you could therefore use lower rings with a riser. Seydou |

I'm in the same boat as the OP. I've got a flat top and my standard 30mm rings obviously don't work. Even though my red dot came with 2 rings, I'm thinking that buying a mount from 1137 might be the best way to go for saving money. My rifles a range toy so it doesn't need anything fancy. -Mike |
good height, but eye relief issues. a 1/2" riser/extender with med rings would fix that, with a 1" tube. youd be .06" lower. |
