ring height for 527 Varmint Kevlar?
« on: September 01, 2008, 08:02:31 AM »
I am about to get one in 223 and will probably mount a Zeiss Conquest 4.5-14x44 on it
wondering if the stock rings will work or if I will need to go higher

I hate getting it home, start to mount a scope so I can go shooting and find out it doesn't work..  arg!

On 527's you need high mounts for the the scope just to clear the bolt. You may need even more depending on the size of the scope.

thanks
I saw the James Calhoon modified bolts for better scope clearance as well...
