Putting a Vortex HS LR with 30 mm tube on Ruger Mark ll and wondering if anyone has recommendation for new bases and rings and what height rings would work. This is a .338 Win Mag elk rifle. Replacing a Tasco and factory rings. Am assuming Ruger doesn't make 30mm rings

I am currently using a Burris Ruger-to-Weaver adaptor ( http://www.burrisoptics.com/mounting-systems/mounts-and-bases/ruger-to-weaver-base-adaptorr ) that allows you to use non-Ruger rings.

You can also get picatinny rail (https://www.murphyprecision.com/Products/Item/1132) but has to be custom machined to your rifle (drill and tap receiver).

Weigand (http://www.jackweigand.com/Ruger-M77-MKII-Rifle-Scope-Mounts-No-Drill.html) also makes weig-a-tinny rail but is NOT rfated for .338 WM. It has been a while the last time I contacted them but might be worth checking for any updates.

Good luck!

EGW makes a 20 moa rail. It needs to be D & T'ed. I have one on a short action credmoor...
