I'm assuming you have tried? Rings are also .95 not 92's.you can always file down or remove some material if you already bought rings and scope but the caps don't fit by a tiny smudge.
I'm assuming you have tried? Rings are also .95 not 92's.
I know the 3.6-18x44 fits easily. But id go with the 5-25 if I can and not have to get taller rings
Do you have the same setup? T3X lite with a Mark5HD? Got a pic??I've got some teneabrex caps that I filed down and I have seen others do it too.

It's only money so just buy the Alumina capsI'm assuming you have tried? Rings are also .95 not 92's.

Need help, debating between Mark5HD 3.6-18x44 or the 5-25x56, T3X lite. I have a mountain tactical 20moa rail and have Seekins .95 rings already. Will the 56obj clear or would I need higher rings?? Or just run with the 3.6-18x44 that I know will clear.
Cheek weld is also of concern. I'd rather not have to modify the stock or buy a new stock with adjustable comb. I know I'm pinching pennies but it's what I gotta do. ?if it was me looking at those two scopes i would look at it in a different way...
1. both are 5 power scopes
2. one will have better low light transmission (56mm obj) than the other
3. what will i be using the scope primarily for
when spending that sort of money on a scope i would be prepared to purchase new rings if the ones i have didn't allow the bell to clear
my thoughts.
Hmmm......?
Finally got the McMillan installed on my hunting rifle. Loving the balance and the Thunderbeast suppressor (when it comes) will finish it out nicely. It has been a multi year project to get it here. Started off as a stainless CTR in 6.5 CM but since then I had the barrel cut to 19 inches and fluted. Had it Cerakoted, added a Area 419 20 moa rail, aftermarket bottom metal to accept the factory mags. Finally I added the Carbon McMillian stock, Nightforce scope, Seekins low rings and Sterk handle. I think I'm done now but who knows
One hour and minutes.
What it is

Countdown do anything for anyone? Just left at 0's upon refreshing and now there are tears in my popcorn
Soooo its a Sako barreled action in a wanna be Bravo chassis?
No mention of changes to twist rates, but seems they nailed everything else. Tikka version?
I might try to get behind one first, personally I think the ergonomics aren’t great. I sold mine and got a KRG Bravo and I’m much happier.
Regarding the 20 moa rail: I have 20 moa because that's what all of the cool kids have.... In all seriousness, no, it isn't needed for hunting (my kind of hunting anyway) but my brother has a range set up that we can shoot 1200 yards on steel so it's nice for that, especially with the velocity that the shorter barrel is producing. A zero moa rail would be just about perfect for cheek weld with the Seekins Low rings that I have but I also really like the Area 419 rails and they are 20 moa. The 20 moa with low rings does gives a nice cheek weld. Not perfect, but acceptable for hunting purposes. I just don't know if that setup would work with a 50mm scope....it would be really close.Wow that looks great! I would like to do the same for a T3x stainless in 3006. Dumb question maybe, but why a 20 moa rail on a hunting rifle? What will your maximum ranges be? Is that to get the scope higher to match the stock? Are there any disadvantages to using the dovetail mount? What bottom metal did you go with?
Cheek weld is also of concern. I'd rather not have to modify the stock or buy a new stock with adjustable comb. I know I'm pinching pennies but it's what I gotta do. ?
Can you post links to the Eurooptics pages.. nevermind found em.anyone see a priceon these things? Can’t find it. Nevermind, they are for sale on Europtic. $1600 for hunter and $1700 for the PRS style.

I put my CTR in a KRG Bravo and its awesome. I've got three rifles in Bravos now and I think it would be hard to find a better stock unless you're willing to pay a hell of a lot more.I might try to get behind one first, personally I think the ergonomics aren’t great.

New Tikka rifles 2020:
I've got a CTR and I"m running a MK5HD 3.6-18 scope on it and it fits just fine. I"m using Leupold rings and it does have a 20MOA rail, but its has more than enough clearance, and the eye relief is just right. It's in a KRG Bravo stock now though.Cheek weld is also of concern.

So your rings are the 1.1 height. If I wasn't LH I would also have mine in a Bravo.I've got a CTR and I"m running a MK5HD 3.6-18 scope on it and it fits just fine.

If you are going to shoot any PRS style matches, get the Area 419 ARCA rail for it. They make an M-lok version and it makes the gun ride a bag a lot better than the factory forend.
I got the same rifle in left hand. I'm going with Leupold Mark5HD in probably a 5-25x56 in Seekins precision rings, Mountain Tactical base. I also did the mountain tactical trigger spring upgradeSo my CTR got a big brother for hunting purposes today.

Looking for recommendations for a solid ring/scope combo. Want to be able to dial out to distance and am thinking of an SWFA 3-9x42 hd in some zee rings.
I am open to suggestions but would like to keep gun relatively light weight and in ffp for the scope.
I have a T3 in 7mm for hunting out west and here are my suggestions:So my CTR got a big brother for hunting purposes today.

Anyone know if the Tikka T3x Stainless varmint is a heavy barrel? or what contour barrel?
When the Sitka blacktails come down from the alpine they rub on all the alders. That’s what turns their horns and hair red. It’s pretty neat!That deer has coloured hair.
