I have an old European scope I'd like to mount, but it's a 26mm tube or just over 1 inch.
If anybody has some tucked back that they'd be willing to sell, I'd be grateful. Used or new, but functional.
Trying to avoid the 30mm ring with reducer look if possible.
Thank you.

Redfield also made them.
It is easy to open up a 1" ring with a brake cylinder hone IF you are patient.
Amazon also has hones in various sizes.
I just ordered the 30mm to 26mm delrin inserts from Brownells. They will be no more obtrusive than the Burris Signature rings.

The gun they're going on has an octagon barrel and Leupold bases already, so swapping to another style isn't so easy.

Thank you. Burris 1" Signature rings with the plastic inserts will accommodate 26mm tube scopes, and they're available to fit Leupold bases..

That was my guess as well. I had one for a while, which is how I know the Burris 1" Signatures work.
