Posted By: Jim_Knight Scope Ring Question? - 11/22/22
I just bought a Burris Drop Tine 4.5x14 x 42mm AO and the Obj Bell looks "huge". Spec's claim it is 2.2" wide. I want to use Medium HT Leupold STD rings ( well, this one will be the Extended Front ring for a Mod 7) because I have them on all my rifles except a few. Specs also claim that Leopold's Med rings work for 42-(maybe 45mm) . But this baby looks huge as I said. My rifle is still at the smith's but wondering if this 2.2" Bell will work with Med rings? Help anyone?

Toss the scope,base and rings,while you can. Hint...............
Posted By: Jim_Knight Re: Scope Ring Question? - 11/22/22
Oh you scamp, ha. I can honestly say I have never had an issue with the mounts. I "did" have a Burris 3x9 lose its reticle (first shot from my first 338WM, back in early 90s) Replaced it with a Leupold 2.5x8, no issues. The newer Burris scopes work fine on what I have put them on, up to 338WM also. But this one is going on a 243, and I already have the mounts/scope. Its just this OBell looks like the old Simmons 44! ha

You were/are the one asking questions,for very good reasons and would do well to forget everything you "think" you "know". Hint..............

Stick, I know your not a fan of the op's scope or mounts. I'm replacing a scope with a Athlon Helos BTR GEN2 2-12x42 what rings do you use or recommend?
Posted By: Big Stick Re: Scope Ring Question? - 11/22/22
What are the particulars of the platform and it's application? Hint.

The OP doesn't want to know what works or why,but rather a hug for her fhuqking STUPIDITY Award and them differences are beyond "stark". Hint............

I mounted that same scope on a 700 using medium rings.
Posted By: jc189 Re: Scope Ring Question? - 11/22/22
Stick, The Athlon Helos is going on a Tikka T3x 308 with a 20 moa mountain tactical rail.

KchuntShoot is yet another Professional Victim,who Dreams aloud and is unable to cite particulars. Only because she's doing her BEST though. Hint.

Onto a Teeker wearing MT 1913 inclination,I want SWFA Low's. Mainly because they are in fact fhuqking Low and combine great surface area,with very modest mass,while enhancing ring spacing along with said attributes. Hint.

Get a one piece rail/mount, either weaver style or picatinny. Best picatinny rail I've found is by Hanks precision gun parts. And use burris signature zee rings, med. should be fine. Don't even screw with standard rings and mount(s).

I haven't scoped a new rifle in a while, and I've got a Tikka 695 and Win 70 that need some help. 30MM scopes are going on them both, and didn't really want/need to put 1913s on them, looking for steel. Suggestions?
Posted By: Big Stick Re: Scope Ring Question? - 11/23/22
I don't 695. Hint.

On a Winny,I'd look for Burris Signature Extreme 2pc 1913's,or grab 2pc Steel Weaver Warne's and open them up to a 1913 cross slot,for SWFA Low's already mentioned above. Hint.

Fortunately for you,Imagination and Pretend are free,so even YOU can "afford" to "contribute",even thoug the only things you can "offer" in the first hand,which are your seemingly WELL founded Homoerotic Fantasies. Hint.

Thanks Pard, that helps! Stick, I know you have some fine rifles and scope set-ups, but I don't have the budget you do, ha. Now, if you wanted to "give me" one of your set-ups, I can send you my Dealer's Address? ha

2.2” = 55.8 mm. That’s a very large objective lens so will need ring height to fit a 56 mm objective. Doesn’t sound like the Leupold mediums (42 mm max) will do it.

Buying SCHIT glass,is false "economy" and same goes SCHIT mounting systems. Start with SCHIT and you will fhuqking always end with SCHIT. Hint.

Were your VERY Tender Feelers not involved,you could have basked in the long term sanctity of wares,that actually fhuqking work...start to finish and been into same for under 350 Clams turn-key,with glass,mount,rings and caps. Then you could have learned that which dictates POA/POI intersections,as per fhuqking whim. Hint.

I understand your point, however, I don't like rails, and I don't like tall turrets. Thanks for the info guys.

JamesQueen,

You "understand" less than zero,thus your propensity to assemble Schit Rifles,while doing your BEST. Hint.

The objective end is huge because it has an AO. The lens is actually just 42mm but the objective is the size of 50mm because of the AO.

Thanks MagShooter. Watch out for Ol Stick...he is in rare form! lol
