Minox ZP5 5-25x56 MR4

I will try to look at the ones on mine tomorrow.

Eyeballing your master sporter, I’m guessing you have the 1.00” (A223) rings

I just told a buddy to buy a tikka from Euro. I might as well tell him to get a THLR 5-25 as well.

Suppressed Tikka .223 in Rokstock topped with Minox ZP5 THLR = .... Rokslide Super Special?

Definitely need to build an RSSS now...maybe chamber it in .223 AI, and make it a little more specialerer.

Make it a 22 creed and you’re good to go

Sooooo.... now that we are all $2000 poorer. What mount are we getting?

Going in the same seekins xtra highs as the bushy xrs3 its replacing.

I’ll probably buy area419 rings the next time I need new pic rings though.

Mine will go into some flavor of NF Ultralight 4 screw rings. They're solid, light, and don't take up much real estate on the scope tube which allows for mounting as far apart as possible.

Side note to @Formidilosus or I guess anyone who would know:

I've heard a few people offhandedly mention that having a scope ring too close to where the objective starts to flare out can cause issues with parallax or something. Is that a real issue where I should give some space (like 0.25") from start of the objective or is it just fuddlore?

I’m not Form, but you should not be mourning the rights right on where the tube begins to flare. I would give it at least 1/8”.

Jake told me I got the last one.

Somewhat relevant to your question, here's a pic from user NotBotvinnik on the Hide, which I think might have accompanied a post about the need for wide ring spacing for the ZP5 5-25, given its long body:
