I want to then put see-thru rings on it. I know most guys hate them on here but I've also talked to several that love them so I just have the urge to try them out and see if I like them or not.
Aluminum bases and rings are not as strong as steel bases,and using those ridiculously tall see through rings just makes it even easier to knock the scopes zero off.Do yourself a favor and either don't bother with a scope at all,or forget the open sights and mount the scope as low as possible so that you can get a proper cheek position on the stock.
Well, I was told on this gun to clear it I need to use high rings for the scope so I figured instead of doing that I minus well just go ahead and use see thru ones to try them out. I kind of want open sights to use incase a deer is running. I'd rather have these on my rifle than my muzzle loader but my rifle doesn't have open sights on it. Yet I want a scope for long shots. That's why I'm thinking I want to try them out.
