Thank you in advance

Re: Rifle scope mounting question 1 Attachment(s) I don't think you will have enough height with even 1" tall rings to get an appropriate cheek weld. You need at least a 1/2 inch tall base or a pair of 1/2 inch "risers" in addition to the 1 inch rings for a total of 1 1/2 or more. This A.R.M.S. base is 3/4 inch in height:

I have not seen that set up before...it looks very versitile.....does it have a name or part # ?>>>>>>>>>EDIT DUH!!!! i looked up the PEPR on the pic and found it ...I do notice it only provides a 1" rise and your recommending a 1.5 rise to get a good correct cheek weld....THank you

by my calculations if they are correct all i need to clear is a 1/2 ring...but you think i will need more for a appropriate cheek weld/ eye alignment? if i ordered 3/4 inch risers...i could then add a rail riser to get more if i needed it...i have a couple of rail risers here on the shelf?

Re: Rifle scope mounting question I've got a 44mm scope with one inch rings. I also bought the risers, but I find that it's awkward to use the risers with the one inch rings I think with the 50 you would be cutting it close with the one inch, but it would prolly be doable.

Re: Rifle scope mounting question 1 Attachment(s) Best way would probably be to check out someone else's setup at your local gunshow or gunshop. Another option available from Midway:
