I’m going to put a 30mm tube- 50mm objective scope on this rifle in 17hmr.
I just got it and with just a quick grab of some ammo it shoots 1inch groups at 100yrds.
Anyone make a picatinny rail for it?
30mm rings are hard to find for the dove tail mounts.

I have an AREA419 rail on mine. MDT also makes a rail and I am sure a few others.

Depends on the exact scope but here is mine. It’s a 30mm tube with 50mm objective bell. It sits in ATRS Ultra Lite rings size medium. (1” tall) and the barrel has about 1/4” of clearance still.

It looks like you could easily run the ATRS low rings.

Very likely could. I switch my scopes between rifles on a regular basis an it gets tight on one of the other rifles. All my rings are currently 1”. Although I want the low rings for one of my 42mm Objective scopes. Just waiting for someone to sell some haha.

I have a Sightron STAC 4-20x50 on an Anschutz 1407, using the Warne 30mm rimfire dovetail rings. It's a good fit.
I found them at Canada Brass a year or so ago. Quick and good to deal with.

You'd have to figure out which height you need. Warne has the ring dimensions on their website. Once you know the actual diameter of the objective bell on your scope it's simple math.
 
As a new owner of a Tikka T1X, a Burris 5-25 x 50 was installed because that was what was not attached.

A 1.44 x 0.41 10-shot vertical group with Blazer was shot at 100 yards.
