Does the Crown MKI and MKII require extra high scope rings to clear the magazine? Ya, ya, I know that FX adjustable rings work, but do any of you use any other brand of rings?
I just had to order the FX extra super dooper high rings for my new crown. I usually use Vortex high rings and like them a lot...however, the bell of the scope was on the barrel and the mag wouldn't have come close to working. I had no idea, never had this problem before!
One of the videos I was watching showed a set of Eagle Visions just clearing the mag (think it was AEAC). Those are really tall, at like 1.4”. This is much taller than most rings. I have not received mine yet, so I cannot yet confirm for sure what is needed, but that is what I saw this week.
I used the Burris Signature Rings. The three bolt pattern ones. They are 1.25" tall and just clear the 'bulb' of the 30mm scope where the correct eye relief happens for me. They also make a 1.5" tall I believe.
I was able to use all of the gain by adjusting the inserts.
