20series Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Peeps How do I work out what height rings I need?? My Sako 85 has Leupold QR bases and 30mm rings, the existing scope is 50mm objective but I'm putting on a 56mm. I cant remember what height the rings are but I the current scope is nearly touching the barrel as is. I am planning to buy some new rings to go on the existing bases. Where do I measure from to get the height right?? I found this on a web page Ring Height:Low: 0.65"Med: 0.77"High: 0.9"Super High: 1" cheers Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

20series Posted January 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2019 Looks like I'm now sorted hopefully, the opticsware house calculator indicates I need highs. Using the existig scope and base measurements mine are mediums which seems to work out. Thanks for the help Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
