[QUOTE="antelopedundee, post: 2577074, member: 107384"] Another factor to consider is scope length. I have VX5-HDs 171715 which are 13.5 inches long and a VX3-HD which is 12.7 inches long. To get the proper eye relief one needs to mount the VX version somewhat farther back. Using low rings with a Pic rail might be an issue if the scope bell contacts the Pic rail. I got by lucky with the pictured setup using low rings. Generally I play it safe and get medium rings and avoid any issues. Also a good reason to use the same scope on all of your rifles if you can.
