Rifle Scopes Nightforce 50mm objective... ring height?

[Dustin1984]

Wondering what you other Nightforce owners are running for ring height and make with your rifles. Just ordered the Nightforce 20MOA Picatinney rail for my rem 700 short action. Have yet to make a decision on rings though.

0.885" will clear most barrel profiles. If there is any doubt, go with the 1.00" rings and adjust your stock comb accordingly.

Agreed. .885 for Sendero contour barrel.
Am not sure if that will clear for the heavier barells though.

Low rings for anything Sendero and under, medium for m40 contour and larger.

Seekins Medium High for HV or MTU contour.

NF low should be fine.
