I have a 5R and not sure what size mounts I should get and what size or 1 piece/2 piece bases I should get to put on it that will work best for a 50mm Nightforce. I just don't want to order a set and find out they don't work and have to send them back and all that. So if anyone has this sent up or knows which will work best I appreciate the advice. Thanks!

Get a quality one piece base. I used Seekins on mine. And i think i went with med low rings. You will enjoy.

I used the Nightforce direct mount with a defensive edge ACI/ACD mount. Works great and is rock solid. Kinda pricey though.

Give the guys a call at AllNightForce They seem to know what fits best.

I have a 5-R and recently ordered a NXS 12-42X56. On the NightForce one piece 20 MOA mount this scope fits perfectly with the NF medium rings. Still room for a BC Obj lense cover.

I prefer one piece mounts and bed them with Devcon. Leaves room for an anti-cant/angle indicator mounting like the Horus Vision ASLI
