deermasher Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 i finally got me a slug barrel for my SBE II i'm planning on putting my 3x9 burris scope on it and was wondering if the bell will clear the rear sight blade. i would use a differant scope but this one is a very good scope and i would like to put it to use and not have to buy another one. anybody have any exspeirace with this???

mudhen Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 The answer can only be provided by you when you select the base/ring height. mudhen - CA Quote
tucker301 Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 Roughly - Try medium rings with a 40mm and high rings with a 50mm objective lens. Here are Leupold's ring heights. Other makers should be very similar. Medium rings - .77 inches High rings - .90 inches Super high rings - 1.00 inches These are measured from the top of the mounting surface to the bottom of the scope tube. Quote
deermasher Posted August 11, 2006 Author Posted August 11, 2006 i have a set of med. i'm hoping they work i want to keep cheek down on stock as much as possable..it took me so long to get the barrel that i can't imagine how long it would take to get a new taller peice for my stock....... Quote
tucker301 Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 If you're going to use a low mounted scope all of the time, consider removing the rear sights altogether. Quote
deermasher Posted August 11, 2006 Author Posted August 11, 2006 i know i could take the back blade out of the sigt but does the whole ramp come off?? it's a very nice barrel and i don't want to mess it up Quote
mudhen Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 Maybe try Leopold Quick Release w/med rings? I did that on my Omega muzzle loader so I can switch from scope to red dot to open sights depending on the F&G laws of the area I happen to be hunting that day. mudhen - CA Quote
