Default Triumph Owners scope question..

Hello,
I was wondering what scope,base,and rings people have used with success on their Triumph. Ive read some stories about people mounting scopes and running out of adjustment on the Triumph on other forums. Im just trying to decide on a scope, the Nikon Omega BDC ML scope has 60MOA adj., while the Nikon Prostaff and Buckmasters, has 80MOA adj. These were a few scopes i was thinking about. Thanks Bob

The mounts that I have on my Triumph are the heavy duty one piece Leupold base and dual dovetail rings. I love the combo. It's rock solid...and looks good. Can't wait to pull the crosshairs on my first smoke pole deer!

I just installed a Bushnell Trophy 250 DOA on my Triumph which has 60 inches of adjustment at 100 yards. More than enough range of adjustment.

I have Nikon Omega's on both the Triumph and the Endeavor, I put good steel rings and a Weaver baseon. I really like them I have had the one on the Triumph for about 18 months, for having the capability of long range a good lazer range finder and an Omega Nikon is very accurate. Lee

I put high rings on both mine the stocks have fairly high combs and I like the way the high matches up. Also I like the clearance so I can get the hammer back quick and quiet, I don't like fighting to get a thumb on the hammer with gloves on and a deer in front of me.

x2 - I did try mounting with medium rings but there was not enough clearance to get at the hammer
