Scope rings with inclination built in?

[Tulsa Reiner]

My nephew just bought a Sako S20 in 300 WM that has the picatinny rail machined on the receiver, hence not interchangeable.
He bought a Trijicon Ten Mile scope, and wishes he could obtain more than the 17.5 clicks that are built into the scope, which only allows for a 450 yd shot.
Since he cannot change the rail, I am wondering if some company makes 30 mm scope rings that have inclination built into them?
I would appreciate the name of the manufacturer and the model of the rings, if there is such a thing.

Yupp, there is plenty to choose from.

The attached scope mounting table gives you:

▪︎ prices (and yes, I'm aware you can spend 3x as much.....)
▪︎ mounting heights
▪︎ other features that some have


I own several of the brand/models listed in the table — but the toughest of the bunch must be the Burris XTR Signature rings (with the inserts). I just bought my second set last week right here at LRH!

Thank you, JungleShooter.

I've used the Burris rings with the inserts too , they work well . you can also get a picitinny rail that mounts on top of the integrated rail , that adds moa . I can't think of where I saw them . I think field and cave outfitters was making them . these are available if you look around some you should find them . just watch the height , these add on rails will raise your sight height .

It is the added height that makes us reluctant to add a rail onto a rail.
Meanwhile I found American Rifle Co makes integrated rings and mount that mount on a pic rail, with varying amounts of built in inclination.
The only drawback is they cost $290! They do look extremely durable.

17.5 clicks?
What tenmile did he buy?

Engineers could develope a solid rail system with dials like turrets on the side that would give inclination hight ajustment 1/4 per click in a low profile config; that would solve this problem and with a patent on it would make him rich.

I just purchased a warne lrskel 20 moa mount in 30mm. I have not yet installed, but it looks like it will work well. $123.00

I think the Burris Signature zee rings with inserts would be your easiest solution. Interesting rifle, I had to check it out, never heard of it.

Edit: I just checked the Sako website and they make a scope base to add on with 0 or 20 moa built in but you need to get their rings to mount to it. The base goes on the pic rail.

^^^^^^^ My question as well? Clicks or Moa....?

My mistake: A half click would be difficult to do, and 17 clicks is nothing! I should have said 175 clicks. He bought a 3-18 x 50mm XD Trijicon Ten Mile with milrad reticle.

The extra (excessive) height would be a concern.

I like Burris Zee Sig Rings & use them whenever I have a Pic rail or Weaver type bases (2). Using a +10 (30mm) insert bottom back & a -10 (30mm) bottom front lots of elevation can be gained. Tilts axis of scope down making for elevation gain. Burris also makes an upgrade Sig ring set that is nicer but does the same thing. Twisting scope to get exact up-down reticle is somewhat more of a chore but alternate tightning of rings at each side works to prevent moving reticle plumb. After all that. I shoot a group at 100 that will zero me in at 200 then crank on enough elevation to hit way out there as far as expected using tall target, a 36 inch long 1X6 works real good. If max elevation group prints on same up/down line as 100 yard group you should be good to go. Like 30 inches or so for a moderately zippy cartridge will get you out to 1,000 or so.

17.5 mrad will take him past 1 mile not 4 hundred yards..! So why is he looking for more....confusion between mrad and moa I'm thinking...
