What rings for 50 cal disc elite?

[prostreetcamaro]

I am looking all over the place and I am getting more and more confused. What rings should I use for a disc elite? I like the idea of rings that allow you to remove the scope but hold zero when you put it back on.

 

[Patrick White]

Warne QR rings.

 

[Critter]

Warnes would be my answer too.

Why you wana take the scope off anyway, there aren't any sites on that shooter? Glad to see you found one.

Thanks guys! I figured it would be nice in case I ever wanted to take it off for some reason. If you guys think regular rings would be better then I will go that way.

Ok I found the rings at cabelas but i cant find the bases?

Standard Weaver base for a Knight will work for the Warnes, you can probably find them at Walmart because they are so common. The Warnes are well worth the money beacause they are so strong, the removable feature is just a plus.

I have a 40mm objective scope. Do I need low medium or high rings?

 

[Patrick White]

Medium. The lows might work but I don't know for sure.

Your getting bases with your gun. And I would highly recommend you get the Warne QR rings also, makes cleaning the breech area alot easier.

I tottaly forgot its coming with bases. That makes it much easier!

I'm using Knight factory weaver mounts and Warne Low QD rings with an Elite 3200 3-9x40mm.

just a heads-up, it appears that the link Big 6x6 posted is for M880 bases, not the M826 bases that will fit a knight extreme/elite/wolverine/etc (although those m880 bases might work?). It appears that the M826 bases are not available and never will be again???

they had some in stock last week, and i hesitated on buying them. now im kicking myself, cant find them anywhere else

 

[Patrick White]

That sucks. That was the only place I knew to get them too. :evil:


Edit: Found them listed elsewhere.

I don't know if that's 1 or 2 bases for that price.

When I posted that link...it had a whole long list of Maxima bases....of which the M826s were one. Obviously the link is no longer valid for the Knight bases...

Weaver Grand Slam S45 is the next best thing. I've used them and although they are a little taller(use shorter rings) they are okay. You'll need two.

Guys i ended up going with the leupold QR base and rings. I found a deal on them and they swayed my decision. I hope I didnt do the wrong thing?

 

[Patrick White]

If it's the post type rings the base won't fit right and you'll be dissapointed.
