Help please: SRH scope ring height?

[meh92]

What height Ruger factory scope rings do I need to mount a Burris #200218 (1" tube, 27mm objective, 35mm ocular) on a Super Redhawk?

Thanks everyone and Merry Christmas!

Due to the different heights of the base, the rings are two different heights.
The rear one is shorter and measures approximately, .305 at the base.
The front ring measures approximately, .435 at the base.

Not sure the heights but I used the rings that originally came with the gun to mount that exact scope to my SRH. No issues.

Here's the chart showing what comes from the factory (in red):

https://shopruger.com/PDF/ScopeRingChart.pdf
You likely will need a #4 (Medium) up front, and a #3 (Low) in the rear.
(Those are the rings it comes with… good starting point, at least!)

Objective lens should be a non-issue.

Ocular lens MIGHT be a problem, depending on where it is in relation to the rear sight and/or hammer.

I have several Burris handgun scopes on Contenders. The Leupold 2X seems a little more trim/compact to me, so that's what's on my Super Redhawk and MK II pistol.

If you had a #3, #4, and #5 ring on hand… it'd be easy to switch rings around and see what "fits best" for your taste.

I keep a few miscellaneous rings in my "kit," for that very purpose.

Good luck, and happy tinkering!

Much obliged!

Are you able to post a pic?

 

[contender]

If you need pictures,, I can post one. Do you just want the rings or a picture of them on the gun?

If you could post a pic of that scope mounted, I would really appreciate it. I would like to see how low it mounts.

Thank you.

Here’s one I just copied off of a webpage.

I don’t know what height rings were used, though.

Another, off the Burris page:

If the pictures above don't show what you wish to see,, let me know & I'll take one of mine. But I will say mine looks close to the top picture.

 

[meh92]

Pics are great, but I don't know what height rings they are.

 

[rugerguy]

looks like a medium in the rear and the high in the front, isn't that what comes with the gun??? if you want higher, use the front one in the rear and get the extra high for the front ,one step up for each ring does the trick..at least these days you can buy an individual ring, instead of having to buy the "set" ( pair).......... ;) :cool:

Am I missing something? Why not get and use the rings described in the chart posted?

BTW …. We should save that chart and keep it here somewhere.

meh92,, look at the chart posted. It gives you the part numbers, and height listing to match whatever scope you may have. hittman has it right,, look at the chart to see what you may need.
Uncle Howie has even highlighted your gun on that chart. If you are worried about scope ring clearance,,, look at the chart,, it gives you your options.
