    Scope ring question

    I’ve got a nightforce with a 56mm objective and a rifle with a full sendero contour proof barrel. What ring height would be needed? Thinking highs but am unsure. TIA

    Pic rail on the action or what?

    Steel sendero contour barrel or proof carbon? They are different.

    Assuming carbon. And a pic rail. Lows of most brands still fit. Assuming 34mm tube.

      Probably a high, 56mm =2.04 inches
      I have a Burris signature 44mm on red field one piece base , Winchester mod 70 medium contour barrel and 44mm was a tight fit with medium rings

        Big difference in your bases and a rail. I’m running 34mm and 35mm tubes and 56mm objectives on several guns with lows.

            Like Matt said, assuming you have a 34mm tube and are running a pic rail, most lows should work fine for you.

              Right. Being as it’s 2021 I’d hope he’s running a rail

                Sorry left out a bit of info, it’s the carbon barrel, on a 20moa rail and I believe it’s a 30mm tube. Will double check but I thought the NXS was a 30mm tube

                  Lows or medium, your preference. Both will work.

                    If it's an NXS, it's going to be a 30mm. I was thinking a 5-25x56 or 7-35x56 ATACR. I would probably go with medium height rings in that case.

                      Lows might clear still. Mediums Will for sure. There’s some slight variations in heights from different manufacturers. Pay attention to that.



                      And you haven’t posted the rifle pics. So you have let us down.

                          NF lows will clear if you have a pic rail
