Two rifles, two scopes. Trying to decide if one option makes more sense. I have 30mm & 34mm rings.
Remington 700 with 24" Lilja in 260 Remington. Barrel has been abused but still shoots OK. Manners T5A stock.
Eagle / Armalite AR-10 built up from parts with 22" Lilja barrel in 260 Remington. Hasn't seen much use.
I'm leaning toward a Larua SPR-S Mount LT158. The question is whether I order it in 30mm or 35mm.
I'm leaning toward putting the IOR on the AR-10, except that leaves me with a spare set of 35mm rings and the mere 42mm objective will make it look a little weird.
Ordering the 30mm version of the LT158 gives me a lot more options to fit a different scope in the future, including something with a ~56mm object that might look more-correct.
I'm still leaning toward the IOR though. Any thoughts either way?
