Yes they do. The rear screw in the front base needs to be shortened to allow for clearance of the bolt face. The rest are fine as is. I'll turn them down so fellas don't have to monkey with them...

16bore, that is a good looking set of rings. What diameter of OB do you feel can be used with the ring height shown?
There are 2 rules to success:
1. Never tell everything that you know.

I haven't messed with anything bigger than 42mm, mainly because that's all I've got. I don't know how much bigger the outside diameter is on a 50 (other than the obvious 8mm) but the 42mm with BC caps is about as tight as I'd want it. You may be able to get away with mediums and no caps on a 50mm

I got a set of the lows for my .25-06 with a Leupold 6x42 and they work great. I did have to take a little off one of the front screws. I also reversed the front ring

16 bore
Ill take another set if you got one.
These fit perfectly on my t3 and convinced me to remove the leupold from my other rifle and upgrade.
Thanks

I have a set of 30mm Lows ready to ship. These will put the tube at .407 above the dovetail. Easiest way to see if they'll work is to take a stack of PostIt notes and add or subtract pages until you get .407, then set it on the dovetail and put the scope on top to check clearance with the bell.
Pretty damn scientific, I know......
