For those of you who have put Talley Lightweights on a pre 64 mod 70 what height have you used? Will the low ones allow the bolt to clear a Leupold VX- 11 40mm scope?

Yessir you’ll be fine with Lows. They clear but it ain’t much. Probably 1/6”+or so on mine.

It may even rub a tiny bit, but should still function.. Wouldn't be the first one with a wear line on the bolt handle...

I agree, the lows should be fine, I have them on most my pre 64 M70's.

Concur with Randy, no problem with Talley LW's.

I just file the bolt handle a bit if they rub.

Minimum clearance agenda, pack a fingernail trimmer along with ammo & other stuff! Better yet, perhaps a nineteen year old manicurist accompanying? Conversely, simply taller rings may be considerably less pesky than to "tally" divorce costs!
Just my take!
