Reply With QuoteI run a SWFA 12x42 SS on a 20MOA EGW rail with SWFA low rings on my Axis 308 and still have 1/4" to spare between the objective lens and barrel.
I am in a build on my Hog hunter 308 and am now ready for scope and mounts, I am pretty sure I am going with the Vortex 6.5-20 x 50 viper. What would be a good mounting setup, rail, rings etc.

I have two 50mm Vipers, one on a #10 action and one on a #12 action. Both mounted on Weaver 20MOA rail with Shilen bull barrels.
I have a hair less than 1/4" clearance using Burris Tactical MEDIUM rings.

Texas are these the rings http://www.opticsplanet.com/burris-x...0mm-rings.html
Thanks for the input guys
I would do the Burris also, only I would do the SIG ZEE ones and get the 20MOA inserts.

RUMs are like woman in Stiletto heals, you know they are going to put you in the poor house, but that has never stopped anyone from pursuing them.

Yes and yes do you have a internal box magazine or a detachable box, I have always found those rails get in the way on an internal box, that is why I like they inserts with the moa built in, and use 2 separate mounts.Originally Posted by campdude

I converted it over to a DBM so that should not be a problem.
Thank you for you help
Yes, those are what I have on both rifles, a .223 and a .308. Good stuff.

Just incase someone is trying to use this info for a hog hunter.
I went with a EGW 20moa rail and the med height Burris tactical rings the scope sit's to high with this setup.
I have ordered some low Burris and will report back.
The low rings fit much better and got the scope down within a 1/4 inch of the sight mount.
These Burris rings I have put on, how tight do you get them on the EGW rail. They are as tight as I can get them by hand, do I need to put a tool on them and tightened more?
I do not have a torque wrench.
