Just ordered the dual strike chassis a couple weeks ago, looked into the setup specifically for the ergonomics of it! I'll post a full review the first day I put my build together and take 'er for a ride. I have no doubt in my mind that this chassis will more than impress me.

Yes, I know what rings they are, I use to have a pair. I still stand by my first comment. Even just looking at photos of the difference between medium and high versions of those rings you can see a big diff. Your rings look like high rings. The post below your photo are medium vortex rings with physically almost an identical scope body. I would put a lot of money down betting they are high rings.

I'll take that bet. I know what size my rings are and the measurements. The package even says medium.
I had Millett highs and went to these mediums.

BTW the pic below mine looks like a Vortex PST or HST with a 30mm tube and 50mm objective. Mine is a Vortex Razor HD with a 35mm tube and 50mm objective. So it's not a direct comparison.

My main point was that my scope with medium Millett rings works fine for me.

Could you let me know when you do your review? Thanks.

I can't remember exactly how much it cost but under $300 and I ordered directly from XLR through emailing them.

How long ago was that? I'm very surprised this item is not ITAR restricted?

Where did you order from? Last year I ordered my McMillan direct, but now they say they are not longer able to do that as of 2015. Manners is the exact same thing, you have to order through a Canadian distributor, but you have to pay import fees etc. I just got a Manners this year and I talked with them directly and they said they had not ability to ship to Canada. So I am confused how you did this, because from my understanding the only way is through an importer.

Hmmm they have appeared to change there policy since I ordered the a5 earlier this year. My mistake, my xlr stock cost an additional $80 to cover extra shipping and paperwork if they changed too guess I just got lucky when I ordered.

I saw Manners stock last time on x-reload. I don't know if they distribute them tho... http://www.x-reload.com/manners/

Of course! It may be the end of September by the time I have my hands on the hardware. But will for sure let you know!
