Anyone using a Game Reaper base? How do you like it? What height are you using and what size scope objective?

I have one on my .270 T3. Great mount, very high quality. I am using the "Low" with a Bushnell 4200 w/40 mm objective.

The best mounting system I have found for the tikka t3 is the warne fixed rings.I have scoped alot of tikka t3's. I just received another set from midway That I ordered for a tikka 300 win mag.Medium is perfect for a 40mm scope
1 and done

Just ordered another pair of Talley low, steel rings (fixed) and bases for a new T3 I bought yesterday. I've got the same exact set-up on my other 4 T3's. All my rifles also wear the Zeiss, 44mm objective scopes and these rings/bases allow for a perfect, low cheek weld......IMHE.
Very well made, solid, take care of business rings and bases.....to be sure.
About $100.....give or take.

On my Tika T3 varmint in 22-250, Game Reaper's one piece high mount lets the Burris Black Diamond 6-24x50 clear the heavy barrel by 1/16" to 1/8", depending on much distance to the eyepiece I want. The fit instructions on the DNZ site were accurate in my case.

I ended up going with the Game reaper in Medium, from what I've read its the best bang for the buck. I heard there are better setups but at more of a cost. I went with medium height in in case I upgrade to a 50mm objective....hopefully soon.

I've got the low with a VX III 2.5x8x36 on a SS T3 Lite and am quite happy.
If there's one thing I've become certain of it's that there's too much certainty in the world.

I just installed a Zeiss 3x9-40 using Dednutz low's and I couldn't be happier, perfect alignment, no lapping. I like the LW Talleys and I tried two sets on my Tikka. The alignment of one set was okay, but the alignment of the other set required alot of lapping and I'm not a fan of lapping aluminum rings. One set had alot of scope bind, couldn't even move the scope backwards and forward without possibly scratching the finish. Ended up returning both sets. Believe it or not, the supplied rings aligned pretty well but they are kinda crappy. I'm also a big Warne fan so I tried a set of Warne Tikka med's just see how they fit. They work great and if not for the Dednutz, I would have used them but they are heavier and for this gun I prefered utilizing the pre-drilled holes instead of the rail.
Get the Dednutz, you won't be disappointed
