I was just wondering, will these .22 scope rings with this scope handle the recoil of the 7.5 x 55 Swiss? These will be used with the Swiss products k31 scope mount.

The biggest hurdle I found while trying to scope the K31 (besides figuring out the tight throat and correct bullet and seating depth to use, etc) was actually finding the correct scope rings to use for the Swiss Products clamp on mount! I bought 3 sets of mounts before finding the correct one that actually fit the mount the best and had the most surface area actually clamped onto the mount. I originally tried 11mm Leupold Steel rings (might work in a pinch, but are technically too narrow for the 3/8" dovetail) and then purchased the Leupold 3/8" Steel rings. These rings again, while being the "correct" size for the mount, barely had any surface area holding onto the mount itself, while they would probably work, I still wanted the best attachment point I could achieve. Next I tried the Weaver "Grand Slam" Steel rings for 3/8" mount, but they again, didn't have much mounting surface area, and were a little wider than I liked. In the end it was the Steel 3/8" Burris rings (NOT their "Rings for Grooved Receiver .22", which is most likely 11mm) that worked absolutely perfect on the mount and fit the bearing surface to a "T"!
 
I don't want aluminum mts or rings on anything so I went with steel side mt Swiss Arms and Burris steel 1" .22 rings.I put a 6X Leupold on her and it hasn't moved.............Harold
 
Should be ok.
Just make sure the front ring is against the stop on the front of the rail.
I did come across some cheap Chinese made rings that were just a little too wide.
Had to do some filing on thne seating surfaces on the bases.
So far, of the ones I have tried, my favorite is the Warne 7.3/22 3/8" dovetails
