Minox ZP5 5-25x56 MR4

That reticle isn't great for a hunting gun. Do they have the THLR for the same price? That's the one to buy.

You're a bit late to the party. Next you'll be telling us it's because you've been out shooting. Pschh.

NF rings.

 

[Jmedin]

NF rings.

Any specific reason for the NF rings?

NF rings are incredibly strong, light, and machined very well. Gold standard of pic rings.

They're awesome. Question is 4-screw or 6??

Yeah I’m wondering the same thing I just started looking at them

NF rings.

The Minox has no problem at 25 in/lbs on the ring caps right?

Talked to him recently and got the vibe that unless you HAVE to use 6 screw rings, stick with the 4 screw. The 6 screw rings from what I've gathered introduce more chance for user error in installation and are really only a benefit if your scope is heavy (which the Minox is) AND your rifle is a very lightweight magnum in a shitkicking cartridge.
