Rifle Scopes Mounting a 6x42 SWFA as low as I can on my Tikka

[forester22]

I'm looking for a low mounting solution for my new 6x42 SWFA scope on my Tikka rifle. I've seen the Sportsmatch mounts and they look pretty good. I'm also very familiar with Talleys. Any other recommendations? I'd be open to a picatinny rail but am worried I won't be able to get the scope as low as I like.

Leupold makes a one piece 0moa mount. My SWFA 10x sits way low on my 700.

1 piece DNZ mount is my lowest mount. 30mm low with a heavy varmint barrel.

Like the other guys have said, the DNZ one piece are great.

I'd go for Talley rings, extra low should be very low.

You want low, try a mountain tactical rail and APA low rings

I know they’re not “cool”, but ive always liked the leupold dual dovetail steel rings. Pretty heavy duty IMO. Looks like they make them for Tikkas. I dont own a Tikka, but they have served me well on magnum Remmy hunting rifles. 8-40 adaptable as well, not sure what screw size is used on the Tikkas.

One thing to watch for when mounting a SS6x low on a Tikka is the brass hitting the windage knob when you eject it. Often it will bounce right back into the port.

This is correct. It barely kisses mine, but has not caused any malfunctions.

I use Talleys on my T3 that doesnt have a rail.
lows are perfect with a 42mm objective.
