***These recommendations should be used as a guide and may not fit all applications (Based on 50mm Objective lens contacting barrel/AR forends). There are several easy to find ring height calculators available online. ***
Rem 700 footprints = low rings (0.92") (up to 40 MOA scope rail)
Ruger RPR = medium rings (1.26")
Ruger American = low rings (0.92")
Savage 110 = low rings (0.92")
Tikka = low rings (0.92")
Sako = low rings (0.92")
AR Platform = ARP Rigid Mount (1.50")
med rings (1.26")
For the new EP5 with the 56mm objective the following are our recommendations:
Rem 700 and clones = medium rings (1.26") with bull barrels and 20 MOA rails
This will be the case for most platforms out there with the exception of anything with AR style shrouds. Then you will need to use a scope rings height calculator.
Savage 110 Elite Precision 6.5 creedmore 26" heavy barrel with 20moa base, what size rings? Looking for long range setup.
I have a Browning A Bolt with a 20 moa from EWG, doing the math th gp between the scope and barrel, and asuming low rings: 17mm (from 34mm tube) + 23.368 mm (from rings) - 28 (from scope radius) = 12.368 mm or a little more than 1 cm (plus the high of the 20 moa. however the problem is that since the slope of the 20 moa base I don't now if the sunshade will fit,(maybe to go on the safe side should use medium rings) I would appreciate your comments.
my savage 10 uses a Med. high ring.
