Scope rings

[gundogblue]

I just got a new Savage FHVSS in .223, I plan to put a Mueller 8x32x44 target dot scope on it, the scope has a 44 mm bell, can I get by with medium height rings?

I issued high rings with my model 11 with my 22-250 Ack

Since it is a side focus and a 44mm dia ring, I can't see why you would not be able to use mediums.

I have noticed that it can depend on your ring mount. The small 2 pc. weavers are not as high as something like a Ken Farrell or an EGW rail. The tactical stuff runs high. You might be able to use some manufacturers lows if you have a tactical rail.

I have that scope mounted on a short action with medium Talley Light Weights, and there is plenty of room. I could even get by with the low's "in those same rings".

Good Luck.......Jim

Could anyone direct to a source for extension rings to fit weaver two piece (factory package gun) bases? I can't get my 4x12 Redfield on my rifle!
