Hello. I need some advice from knowledgable people?? I Just bought a new Swarovski Z5 scope and Iwant to mount it with a secure set up on My Sako 85. I had a set of Sako rings before with a Ziess mounted in them and when I took the ziess out of the rings there were 2 gouges on the bottom of my scope and You could see shiny Aluminum. I don't like those rings.. So I want drill my Reciever and put a pictanny one peice rail with a good set of solid rings. and have them lapped. As I don't want that to happen to my new Swarovski. So does anyone know of a Pictanny rail that will work on my Reciever and Still have enough room for the shell to clear the rail when I eject my round. It is a Sako 85 Finnlight in 270 cal which is the Med action. Also what would be a good set of rings to buy for it? Remember I want this to be a solid set up and I would also light to stay as light as possible for long walks. Thanks

Buy high quality rings and you don't need to lap them..

It sounds like you should call Richard Near and see if you can get him to build a Hunter's Alpha Mount.
 
I think Badger makes some of the best rings out there unless you want to go full custom, there Picatinny bases are top shelf as well.

Ken Farrell rings work great but are not cheap. They come as a matched serialized set, are super strong and look cool too. Just another option for you. The Burris Signature rings work great as well and are priced well. I have used their interchangeable inserts with great success.
