    Nightforce 12-42x56 BR Mount and rings for LRPV


    Good Morning,

    I'm about ready to pull the trigger on a Nightforce 12-42x56 BR for my 6 BR LRPV. What scope mount and rings would you suggest for shooting 600 yard BR. There is a slight chance I might get into 1000 yard competition, so I'd like to have that covered as well. Any help and guidance will be greatly appreciated.

    Ken

    My 6CM with my 12-42 NF BR has IOR rings and Ken Farrell 20moa base. This I like, but most on this site will give you suggestion's for different rings and EGW 20 moa base.

    I would use Burris Signature Zee rings on a good steel picatinny base.

    You will be able to fine tune the slope to the range you desire.

    I'm using the Warne tactical 20 moa base and Warne tactical rings in my 12F.

    It's working for me.
    12F, McGowen 6.5x284 1-8&quot; twist, Nightforce 12-42x BR<br />BVSS, McGowen barrel, 22-250 1-9&quot; twist, Nikon 6-18x<br />16 FHLSS Weather Warrior, Sinarms 257 Roberts, Pentax 3-9<br />Stevens 200, 223 bone-factory-stock, Nikon 3-9x<br />Scratch-built BVSS, LW 243 1-8&quot; twist, Viper 6.5-20x50 mil-dot

    A 6Br is not a heavy recoil gun. I think high end tactical rings are overkill. I have the Burris Signature Zee rings on both my 6BRs as well as 3 other rifles. Best rings on the market in my opinion unless you are firing a heavy hitter. That NF is a high dollar scope and you protect its value with no ring marks with the signature rings. I would recommend steel bases. Tim
