Toka 10 Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 hi, can anyone enlighten me...i have the nighteye 6.5-20x50 on my CZ Varmint. i am using some high mounts and there is 5mm clearance between the scope and barrel. i think these mounts are 23mm high. the distance between bore and scope centre is about 2" and i would like to try to reduce it. trouble is all the medium mounts i have found are too low, usually 3mm or so too low and the front of the scope hits the barrel before the body is settled in the mount cradle. does anyone know of any medium or high mounts that are about 18mm, that will lower my scope the require 5mm? atb Quote Link to post

Once you have the mounts sorted take a few moments to get the comb of your stock lifted so you have a good face weld to the stock. Problem with CZ and big scopes, but one that can be sorted.

f.a.c.sam 1 Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Couldn't you just use the medium height ones which are too low and buy a weaver rail to raise the height by a few mill? Quote Link to post
Toka 10 Posted April 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 (edited) cheers fac Sam, and Sage - i hadnt looked that far into it as yet, i have had a look on the net and there are a couple of mounts i have found, a medium set that takes up 50mm and a high set whos max is 50mm..either will probably do so i will make some enquiries.... i am sure there one of these will do....it still wont expalin the results i have been getting with the hmr though....lol, this weekend seems to be gearing up to be a warm still one so i will do some testing... atb Edited April 9, 2010 by Toka Quote Link to post

Sorry chap my rep called to-day and his options are the same as you wrote about one way or the other to low or to high. if you still have no luck I am happy to try some others. regards Sage.
