    Mounting 50mm Zeiss on Tikka with rail

    Hi there,

    Anyone got a Zeiss with a 50mm objective (could be any 50mm scope I suppose) mounted on a Tikka with a rail? Keen to know what 25mm rings you are using to get a nice low fit.

    Cheers

    Yeah man, the Leupold low PRW rings worked well on mine too but it was a 30mm tube.

    0 moa rail or 20 moa will move it a bit too. I have a set of low mdt rings ready to go on mine. PST2 5-25 with 20moa rail.

    My tikka uses low Warne QD rings with a 50mm bell. About .75mm to spare between the front of the scope and the front of the 20MOA rail. Phew......
