Scope rings for rifle with Iron sites

[Alaskan Rat]

So I copped a BEAUTIFUL virgin Remington 700 BDL in 30-06 with Iron Sights. I also happen to still have my 3-18x Trijicon tenMiler that I would like to mount on. Any reccomendations for scope rings so I can have the luxury of switching between my irons and crosshairs?

The Sadlak mount is pretty high, with a tunnel to look thru. Nearly all Picatinny style rings will have the recoil/cross bolt blocking the tunnel.

There may by some that are compatible with a lower mount, such as the ARMS.

Talley and Warne both make QD rings, though on a 700, the bases may occlude your irons. I have Warne Maxima QD rings to mount my Trijicon Credo HX 1-6x24 on my Ruger Hawkeye Alaskan 375 Ruger. The Ruger rifles have an integral dovetail of sorts, so I don't need a base. It's nice having the option to remove the scope should I ever need to, but the 1-6 Credo HX runs like a red dot on 1x with a wide field of view for brush work, so I don't think I'll ever need to short of breaking something.

QD is the answer. Peek-a-boo mounts are extra leverage for a bump to move zero.

Warne QD rings with Warne bases are probably going to be your best bet.

This. My reason would have been that it makes for terrible cheek weld (or even contact) since they are always too high, but same/same.

Warne makes a low profile base and quick attach ring combo that is specifically designed for this, I can’t remember the part numbers but they exist, I have it on my Brown Precision Pro Hunter that is set up for dangerous game, that is built off a 700 action..
