I am also wondering this. I am assuming they are.

curious what kind of clearance this will have for a scope as well. Maybe get some medium rings and hope for the best?

I've ordered and received a Flash hider from ironeagle tactical , with no issues. I have a buddy who's on vacation , in the U.S. I wonder if he could just pick one up for me.

40 millimeter scope won't fit with med rings. I tried on a full rail rifle and had to order high rings. The med rings were about 1 or 2 millimeters too short for med rings.
 
Checked into the Sightrons like you said. Found a couple : both SIIISS 6-24X50. LRMOA or LFFFP/MOA caught my eye. Pretty new to all this, never and any first focal plane scopes.

Also am interested in:
Bushnell Elite 6-24x50mm MD or G2
Zeiss Conquest HD5 5-25x50 rapid z-1000
Vortex Viper PST6-24x50 EBR1 moa reticle (FFP or SFP i dunno lol)
And if i need to stay under a budget perhaps the Viper HS-T 6-24x50 with the VMR-1 reticle.

The Zeiss is most likely out of the question unless i can find one on the EE for a good price. I do not want to cheap out on a scope and regret it later on though. Thoughts anyone?

It sounds like you are looking for a Sightron! Check them out at forum sponsors Hirsch Precision and Mystic Precision. A rifle with the long range capabilities of this gun deserves capable long range glass and by all accounts Sightron cannot be beat for quality glass under a grand.

So if i want to go with a 50mm OBJ im guessing high rings?

I just looked at my rifle with the high rings and 40mm scope and I still have about 1cm clearance. A 50mm scope would take up another 5mm so you should be fine with high rings and a 50mm scope.

The sightron siii series has better glass than all of the scopes you've listed. I've owned them all, the sightron resolves a whole bunch better than all of those.
 
The Sfp has a finer reticle, and if you are only shooting known distances from fixed positions it might be preferable.
I like the ffp mil hash reticle in the 6-24. It's more versatile, but is a little coarse past 1000 yards on small (<10") targets.
As I mentioned, insite arms imports and sells apa brakes, as does prophet river. For a 308, a little bastard or little jimmy would be the way to go. The gen 2 brakes are easier for end users to install themselves.

I bought a Zeiss HD5-25x50 with the Rapid Z1000 reticle for precision shooting. It is a beautiful scope. I wouldn't recommend it though. I can't afford to replace it right now but it really isn't the right thing for long range competition. It has a limited ability to be "dialed in". There isn't as much room to move. There is an internal stop so it can only be adjusted one revolution. I am in a position with the rifle I own that I cannot get it adjusted without either a 10-20 MOA rail or special shimmed rings. I really think a FFP scope is far better for a match where you are shooting at different ranges. I am probably going to stick with it at least one more year but I wish I'd bought a Sightron FFP scope or held out for a Schmidt & Bender. way more money but those ar the scopes that seem to work the best.
