MK5HD 5-25x56 mounting/rings suggestions

[PaulC92]

Just picked up a Mk5 HD 5-25x56, and am on the hunt for some rings or a mount that would work for my 20MOA pic rail that is on top of my b14 chambered in 6.5prc.

I see the mk4 medium rings for a 35mm but they are out of stock everywhere i check, any other suggestions to get this glass mounted up on my gun?

Thanks

Warne mountain tech are 7075 with 65ip cross bolt torque.

Hawkins are 6061 for the body and offside clamp, I personally wouldn't go there.

I'm a believer in higher torque to the rail. I also dab a tiny bit of imperial die wax on the clamps prior to seating so they can freely slide to their "happy place" as Cortina says. I can't speak to the roundness of the ring bores themselves, I don't use Warne but at 35mm you're limited.

I completely agree about the higher torque being on the rail, and yes starting to notice at 35mm you have a small handful of choices!

I like the arc mbrace rings.

Ended up ordering a set of Area419 match rings to mount it

For a Mk5 HD 5-25x56 on a B14 with a 20MOA rail, you need 1.00" to 1.10" height rings for a 35mm tube. The Mk4 mediums you're looking for are 1.00", which is perfect, but since they're out of stock everywhere, here are the alternatives that actually work.
