I recently acquired a new Ruger Precision Rifle in 6.5 CM and have slowly started assembling the ‘other stuff’.
After much deliberation, I purchased a Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5-25x50 & a set of Seekins 1.45” AR high scope rings.
The scope & rings arrived today and I went ahead and loosely bench mounted the setup. I’m wondering if the rings are too high, as I have an easy 1/2” of clearance between the objective housing and the top of the hand guard.
Prior to buying, I asked Seekins directly and they recommended this height.
Since I am completely new to this, can I please ask for some basic thoughts on ring height? My initial use for this gun will be at a 200yd range, and then 1,000yds once I familiarize myself with this gun.
