Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Optics Will Talley “mediums” light weight 30mm, one piece base rings accommodate 50mm objective?

Looking to go with Talley one piece alloy rings instead of standard Leupold bases and rings that have the windage screw in the rear. I have a 50mm objective and was wondering if medium rings would work? Trying to keep as low a cheek weld as possible and still have clearance from the barrel. What sat you?

I think it will be very close but might make it, take your gun into the gun shop and give it a try. good luck

Probably.

If you use this chart, it's pretty helpful.
Stack some coins atop the receiver, put scope on coin stack - add/subtract number of coins until you get clearance for the objective.
(Using this will also indicate clearance of the ocular/bolt handle)

Then use the chart to find the right rear height (determined from top of receiver to the bottom of scope tube).

yes... I just put a set of 30mm Extended mediums ...with a 50mm objective scope on a vanguard firstlite perfect clearance..

You did not specify rifle but mediums should work. Abolt,Xbolt, Mark V low will work

Most of the scopes I use are 50mm and I have never ran a high righ set up to this day. I use talleys often as well. Should be fine

I would tend to be more concerned on whether the ocular bell would clear the bolt than anything else. It may boil down to the scope as much as the rings.

It’s a meopta Meostar, 30mm tube, Remington 700 action with a Kreiger ~#3 (heavy sporter) barrel, long action.

Should be fine with that , ocular on those is a little smaller then on other 30mm big objective scopes.
