The Larue OBR has a 20 MOA rail the runs the entire length of the gun. I have a Trijicon TR23 50mm scope mounted to the gun currently in a Larue mount, but the scope is mounted higher than I like. What size badger rings would you guys recommend to drop the scope down as low as possible?

Re: Ring Height Help

just measure the hight of scope as it is. from the center of the bore to the center of the scope, and deduct the ammount you want to lower it by, and that will give you the scope height you are after (just make sure there is clearance for scope caps ect).

for a list of badger rings and ring heights see here

to me it looks like 1" to 1.125 is what you are after.
