    Default Mounts and Rings

    I recently bought a Vortex scope with a 34mm tube and a 56 mm Objective Lens Diameter.
    I am strugling to get an affordable picattiny rail and set of rings.
    My rifle is a Howa 1500 Bull .308

    So I guess first question is will Medium hight rings work, does it have to be High Rings.

    Do I use a standard or a 20 MOA rail, does this influence the height of the rings ?

    Do you guys have any places in mind where I can buy these things, S&O does not have 34mm rings, Camdix also does not have rings or a picattiny rail.

    Some guidance would be greatly appreciated.

    Regards

    Buy a 20MOA rail from Gunwarrior or APW/Impact Pro shop or 3%Tactical.

    www.gunwarrior.co.za
    www.axisprecisionworx.com
    www.impactproshop.net
    https://threepercenttactical.co.za

    You can order rings from Impact and 3% as well, or Sus-Tac or Sudami.

    Medium rings should work

    If you're mounting on a rail, low rings should be fine for a 56mm objective.

    Just take the rifle and scope to where you buy the rings from, and make sure of the clearance.

    The most economical 34mm rings I found were the Warne Mountain Tech.

    I have the same scope on my Remington 700ADL.
    Rail and low rings worked for me.
