I'm sure they will. They work with the 3.5-10x40. I have a VX3 2.5-8 off a rifle at the moment, will double check it tonight. "...the designer of the .270 Ingwe cartridge!..."

That's also interesting... I found the old Burris Signature (and its Pentax partner) that had the adjustment knobs well forward about perfect. They had good optics for the day though a tad heavy. Still have one on an old 243 RSI. I like to use the Ruger offset rings, unless the scope is unusually long, or is straight with no objective bell. One downside is they are only available in 1". I used to use those as well but the mentioned scopes did not require them. They were pretty slick. Alas my #1 days have long been over selling what I had many years ago. I do get and itch for one every now and again though. Conduct is the best proof of character.

Ed I figure it I don't have to use the off set rings a just flip um in the classifieds but wanted them here just incase so I can rock and roll as soon as the rifle gets here I'd rather not have to use them My dog is a member of the "Turd Like Clan" Covert Trail Cameras are JUNK 3 Time Dinkathon Champion #DinkGOAT

Kind of down to the wire like when you decided to run the Bisley on a previous hog hunt. A tradition now? Conduct is the best proof of character.
