Ordered Smith mount, ordering the 3200 10x40, need help on rings...

[CanuckShooter]

I was looking at TPS rings, as the seems very good quality and I saw them used on a smith mount on here somewhere... just not sure which size of these to get..... low med or high? I do want to be able to still use the irons through the channel in the mount, and i will be using a bushnell elite 3200... can someone with experience fill me in on which to get?

thanks

with the SEI mount, you will be able to aim thru the channel, no matter the rings.
I have the exact same setup.
I used the medium TPS rings, reason being the IOR M1 scope has a "big belly" and I was a few thous short of being perfect.

The mount channel os rather large and will accomodate a part of the scope, if necessary.
For the 3200, the lows are what I'd get.

One little problem though,,, if your particular rifle ejects the cases a little up and the 3200 is the target one (10x with tall turrets) than I expect all your cases to ding on that scope.

if you suspect that might happen, go with the medium ones, but for the sake of the scope clearance alone, you don't need them.

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks eltorro!
