Best mounts for SWFA SS 5-20x50? HT073?

[c670809]

Just picked up a SWFA SS 5-20x50. I know on many seem to like the Sportsmatch T048 rings on the 42mm scopes. Would I be right in thinking the HT073 rings might be the right choice for the 50mm?

I'm open to other options too. Looks like the Sportsmatch are hard to find right now.

Thanks for your help,
Matt

Bump, looking for the same answer on a Tikka ultralight. Thinking I'd rather use TO48 if possible.

Here is what SWFA 5-20x50HD looks like on a Tikka T3X Lite with T084 rings (approx .060" clearance at the front). The HT-073 will be 7mm higher

T048 is for 1" tube.

T084 is 30mm tube Medium height (13mm base of dovetail to bottom of scope)

HT073 is 30mm tube High height (20mm...)

Have you had any issues with ejection hitting the windage turret with this setup?

I didn't keep that scope on that rifle...I snapped that pic as I was putting another SWFA scope on that rifle...one with bigger turrets (SWFA 6X). No, I don't have any issues with brass ejection

Cool. Interested in that exact setup but I have a 6.5 cm

My credo 2.5-15 turret has caused some Jams from bouncing back
