Scope Choice for Long Action Rifle

[Ludo]

Update to this conversation… I did end up going with the ZCO420, and it fits perfectly with these American Precision Arms Gen 2 Tru-Loc Scope Rings. I had to mount it as far back as it would go, but it turned out to be perfect on this long action. Hope this helps someone else in the future. Very happy with this combo.

What size height rings did you go with? I’m thinking of getting the same scope for an impact nbk long action that I have and would like to go with low rings just not sure if it would fit.

Reviving as i too would like to know ring height and bases used as I'm also looking to add this set up to a Magnus. Maybe I misread but they look like ZCO rings. Thank you!

Hey, I did have the ZCO branded rings, but the scope kept moving in them. I switched to the American Rifle Company M-Brace rings, and it hasn’t moved since. They’re the 24mm height.

Thank you very much.
