mounting a ziess

[stevie_87 2]

hi folks , I'm in a bit of a muddle here! I have a browning x bolt .243 stalker and I am going to buy a ziess duralyt 3-12-50 and don't know what size of rings to get for it. I have ordered leupold bases but don't know if i need medium or high rings? any help would be great.

what barrel profile is it ? if its the sporter you should get away with med mounts. if you get them from optics wearhouse they will let you return them no questions asked

I mounted a 8x56 S&B on my pro-hunter (sporter weight barrel) using med mounts. Obviously you need to mount the scope as low as possible with out it touching the barrel. Got away with low mounts on my Rem 700 SPS tactical and 6x42 S&B and low on my CZ mounting a 6x42 S&B.

 

I would say med will 100% work but if you are lucky you _might_ be able to use low mounts. If you want I could certainly take some measurements in the morning for you.
