Ring height for Leupold vx5hd 2-10x42 (30mm tube) on Tikka t3x

[thinhorn_AK]

Hi all,

WOndering if I can get away with talley light weight low rings on my t3x 6.5 creed while mounting a leupold vx5hd 2-10x42. With DNZ rings I was able to mount an SWFA 3-15x42 on the rifle with low rings.

Anybody have a setup like this? tikka t3x SL with a 30mm tube and 42mm objective lense and get away with talley lightweight low rings? or do I need to go medium?

Low should be fine.

I have the MT rail and Seekins low rings with the same scope and I have clearance. I've always been fine with 40/42 objectives and low rings.
