I have both an accu-trigger and a pre accu-trigger WSM rifle. I'm looking for picatinny or tactical bases to fit both style actions. Will Burris XTB's fit on my actions? I've been looking at the Burris XTB 6 screw rings for the new bases when I find the correct ones. What height rings would I need for mounting my Swift 4-12X40 Premier scope?

If they are both round backs the base should fit.
The EGW bases are good and a lot cheaper.

The 1/2" ring would probably work with a 4-12x40.
I think that is their medium ht ring.
Not sure if a low ring would fit.
I have more issues with the bell and front of the picatinny
rail clearance.

If you go on midway usa under rings there is a ring fitment guideline that might help you out.

Tammons,
Thanks for your reply. I just ordered the Burris XTB bases for both reciever types. I also ordered two sets of the Burris Signature Zee Rings. One is medium and one is high.
