Apr 4, 2026 #5 Some scope brands give the dimension 's of the scope and some scope mount manufacturers give the mount dimensions. You need to watch for scopes with an external Erector tube spring if going for a one piece mount. Some info on dimensions here Post in thread 'One piece Low mounts and Turret clearance' Mar 30, 2026 Some brands of scopes show a diagram with sizes like this one from Vector Optics Hawk also show the sizes but dont show the turret area height. Sportstmatch and some others give you dimensions of the mounts . How the A, B and C sizes are found on the mount. Match your scope choice with you mount choice . Hawke also show their mount dimensions . An example . Sportsmatch have this also but it may not work for all combinations of scope, mounts and rifles. Last edited: Apr 4, 2026
