Looking for recommendations. Planning to put a fixed 10 SWFA on a T1x 17 HMR. Would like to keep it as low as feasible.
Thx

Thanks for the recommendations. Have Lightweights on most of my rifles, but hadn't looked at those for this one. Haven't used a rail mount much and wasn't sure if I would be able to get scope mounted low enough.

I used the Burris Signature Rimfire rings on my T1X - https://ads.midwayusa.com/product/1362181598 I could not see the point on putting a rail on top of an existing dovetail, to add a rail to the top just adds height and adds another unnecessary item to create a potential problem. drover
223 Rem, my favorite cartridge - you can't argue with truckloads of dead PD's and gophers.

DIP 25 moa rail with SWFA SS-Tac low rings. It's pretty low and works well with my SS 6x42 scope. It's also pretty cost effective.

Area 419 20moa rail and low mounts should work well. I have the Same base with medium mounts and it is a little to high I had to add a cheek piece to mine. But I think lows would work well.
I've always been different with one foot over the line.....

I looked at the DIP rail and I like it. Ordered the Lightweights and will try those first.
Thanks guys!

I would be buying the Sportsmatch TO35C - looks like the 11mm dovetail equivalent to the T084, which is my favorite mount for the T3/T3x.

Don't speculate when you don't know, and don't second guess when you do.
