Reply With QuoteIs it a 99 that is already drilled and tapped? If not....
I have a nice Weaver K4 to put on my 99.
I want the scope low. I will use Weaver 2 piece mounts. Can I get by with low rings or will I need medium.
The Weaver site notes that there is only about 0.070 difference betwen low and medium.
Maybe I should just use the med or take the gun to the shop with me and try em.

Yes-drilled and tapped. Im wondering about the height of rings. Can you help??
Sorry - can't really help you there. There are so many different K4s out there (from early ones with no objective bell at all, to "micro trac" models with a small bell to the various modern ones.
Best bet would be to measure your objective and ask Weaver or take the rifle with you to buy rings. All in all, I would bet that the low rings will fit.
You will probably be best with mediums on a 99.I have one with lows but the bell is close on an older redfield.
Willing to give back for what the sport has done for me!
20 yrs ago I bought a 99 with the rotary magazine in .308. Mounted a scope, k-6 weaver with no mounting problems, At sight in I couldnt find the paper at 50 yds using all the adjustment in the scope. Long story short, the mounting screws were offest to the left of the reciever by a considerable amount. Having the holes redrilled and tapped was not an option so it got traded for a 20 ga. double.

Used Weaver mediums.
Could have fit lows on it but good chance Id had to remove the rear sight for clearance.
Windage adjustable rings would have fixed it.Originally Posted by ellobo
