I would use the lowest rings that would clear the front objective bell of the scope over the barrel. Don't worry about the front sight interfering with your vision through the scope. The lowest mounted scope will most likely give you the most natural feeling and shouldering combo. The front sight may be a slight fuzzy blur in the lowest bottom of the scope on low magnification, but it's not really a problem at all.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

Talley makes rings for the Model 9422 which will be a near exact match for the blueing on the rifle, and easy to use. You may be able to get them from this website through Rick Bin. You can also purchase from Talley and Brownells.

dont worry about the front sight. If it does end up sticking up in the scope you can slide the hood off it and put it on the shelf
