Guys, I just ordered the new Falcon 5-25x50 and I'm wondering what height I need. I have a 20moa tps base and I'm wanting to get the burris xtreme rings. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
 
Re: Ring height question.

That's a 56mm objective if I am not mistakedn and not a 50mm. You are going to want a ring height of around 1" from base to center of tube. Burris measures their rings from base to bottom of scope so you will need to add about .55" for the 30mm tube to whatever Burris gives for a height. Their 1/2" height rings should work fine.
