Thanks @akaroa1 I'd be very grateful :cool:

@dannyb these ones are real low
About 8mm

Just put a smaller scope on yours
Would look good with a vx3 1.5-5 Attachment 227351

Original Vintage 1"Sako Ring Heights.Lows 3/32" from top of dovetail to bottom of ring 1/2 round scallop.Mediums 5/16".Highs 15/32" You,ll need to convert to decimal currency to get to @akaroa1 metric system

I can manage both measurement systems

These are in the way to Danny to try and are the correct 25.4mm ones

5/16th

Danny will pass them on Al if he can't use them

Yes mine are 26mm as discussed on the phone, calipers agree :x_x: thanks Dave your a bloody good sort, if they don't work I will pay them forward to bluebaiter222 if they will work on his vixen ?

Im after a low set of .22lr width dovetail by inch scope rings..... cause I just dont need any height on baikal break open and most rings for 22lr are taller than a tall thing.... any ideas???

@Micky Duck 11 or 12mm dovetail ?
I have a lot of rings and not a lot of conventional 22s

bakail rifle..will have a measure
my fancy measuring sticks say 11.97mm at fat top of dovetail... so 12mm
