I pulled the rails off all my Tikka’s. Went to SMatch on all. Lost weight and looks good, IMO.
I ordered a set of TO48C for my T-3X Superlite. Looking at measurements, these result in the scope only 1-1.5 MM higher than the TO84 rings (for 30MM scopes). A Talley lightweight low for the T3x is .5" (12.7mm) while the TO48C is advertised at 13mm. About the same.Wanted the Sport Match for my razor LH but sadly doesn't seem like they are offered in low mount height, don't want the elevation of mediums defeats the purpose of going as low as possible.
Medium is plenty low. Actually, if they made lows they might not fit with the LHT. Here’s some T084 with a Vortex LHT and Defender caps.Wanted the Sport Match for my razor LH but sadly doesn't seem like they are offered in low mount height, don't want the elevation of mediums defeats the purpose of going as low as possible.

The screw is a M4x16 socket cap. And Sportsmatch offered to mail me some extras when I emailed to ask.I stripped the head on one of the dovetail screws today trying to remove the scope. Anyone know off-hand what size/thread these are for a replacement? I looked on the Sportsmatch site and couln't find the info or any extras for sale. I couldn't even definivtely tell if they are 4mm or 5mm, much less length and thread pitch. Thanks.

42mmI received both the TO84 and TO48C rings this week. Lining them up, the 1" scope with TO48C will have its centerline .1" higher than a 30mm with the TO84.

I have a brand new pair of T048s I will sellAnyone have a lead on TO84 rings right now? I've tried all the usual places and can't seem to find any.
Edit: I'd also take TO48C if I could only find those.
Thanks for posting! They are a little tall but not too tall. I have a set I have to mount soon and I am thinking my Vortex 2-10 Razor would sit nicely in them.Here is a 36mm and a 40mm. A little taller than I’d prefer but they work for me.
