I have several rifles that have Murphy Precision picatinny rails and I am having trouble finding rings that get low enough for me. These are hunting rifles that will wear Leica 42mm and 50mm objective scopes. I also have a Leica with a 56mm objective and even the standard .900" were too tall.

Who makes an Uber low set of lightweight rings for picatinny rail mounts?

Thanks Darryle
 
Well, apparently, there are no standards for picatinny rails as far as thickness goes, who makes the thinnest rail height wise?

Is there a post or blog that has collected this data?

Thanks Darryle
 
I love the ARC rings and they do make them quite low as noted above.

Leupold Mk 4 medium rings (they don’t actually make them in “low”) are .84” so that’s another alternative.

I saw specs for the Leupold Backcountry lows that said they were sub .800", that's BS, they are .890"

Thanks for your replies and the linked file. I got some more research and reading to do.
