[QUOTE="shooters, post: 2039146, member: 7769"] Is there a such thing as a low profile picitinny rail? I have a Savage 10 heavy barrel in 6mm Creedmore. I just removed my VX5 HD 3-15x56 with TPS Rings mounted on the cheap Talley 2 piece bases. Scope bell sat about 1/16 inch above barrel. Life was good. Removed scope and went to put on Mark 5HD 5-25x56 with Seekins rings. Of course Seekins rings with the slots only fit 1913 style bases so the Warne and Weaver slots are too narrow. Soooo, I mounted scope on a Weaver style 20 MOA Pic rail and it sits over a half inch above barrel. That’s using Seekins lowest ring option for the 35mm which are mediums at .97. I need to get this scope much lower. I’ve searched. Are there any 2 piece bases that have the Mil Spec 1913 size slots or a very low profile pic rail out there?? Doesn’t have to be 20 MOA or anything. Zero is fine. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
