Recommendations for scope rings.

[pssman308]

I have a mossberg mvp patrol rifle with a picatinny rail on it.  I bought bushnell nitro 4-16x44 scope with a 30mm tube.  What rings should I get?  I know very little about scopes and rings.

Can you measure the distance from the top of the Picatinny rail to the barrel Outside Diameter in the area where the 44MM objective would be?

These, in medium height, will work perfectly for you. They're out of stock right now, but it's worth waiting for them. I have them if several rifles & they've been flawless.

Also, before mounting, read this: https://www.rokslide.com/forums/threads/scope-mounting-to-maintain-zero.78482/

I guess there's something about rings that I just don't "get". I've used cheap rings and mid-priced rings (never have used very expensive rings) and have never noticed a lick of difference. I'm not saying that there IS no difference, just that I've never noted any. I've never had a scope move or be damaged, even with some fairly heavy calibers.

I agree, I've had Warnes and cheap Weavers that I paid ten bucks for and usually can't tell a difference in how it holds zero.

I used Warne Maxima rings on my Henry 45/70. The come in 3 different heights.
