Overview
Built for mounting a 30mm riflescope on Picatinny or Weaver bases, these extra-high rings are suited to setups that need additional clearance for the optic. The 1.50" center scope height makes them a practical choice when scope placement or accessory clearance calls for more height than standard rings provide. They are specified for centerfire recoil and outdoor use, with Torx T-25 hardware and listed torque values to support a secure installation. At 2.12 oz. per ring, they add a straightforward, field-ready mounting option without unnecessary complexity.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed specifically for 30mm scope tubes, so they are not a fit for other tube diameters.
- Extra high height and 1.50" center scope height may be more than needed on some setups, so fit should be checked against your optic and rifle configuration.
- Picatinny/Weaver mounting limits compatibility to those rail types.
- Installation calls for Torx T-25 bits and specific torque values, so proper tools and careful tightening are important.
