Thread: Ring height hell

On mine I carefully filed the bolt handle right down myself (and then had it professionally reblued). I sourced a set of conetrol bases from Richard Wilhems and then used a super low set of conetrol rings which I had lying about. It is now very low - around 7mm from dovetail to scope (much lower than Warnes which is what I previously had) - basically just the height of the base. Also cut the magazine down (mine is 7.62x39) and refitted the existing floor plate - although it protrudes a little (it needs to be because of the release lever), it is now very comfortable to carry.

A couple of terrible photos taken in poor light on my phone are below.. you will get the idea.
